Description

Best practices related to assessment, consultation, and intervention have been well-documented throughout the school psychology literature, with ample empirical support.

Unfortunately, despite this vast knowledge base, many practitioners continue to use outdated and ineffective assessment practices, educational interventions, and therapies, many of which lack research support.

The Desk Reference's editors aim to change that by providing practitioners, academics, and students with a compendium of current, evidence-based, and state-of-the-art best practices in education and psychology. The Desk Reference's comprehensive coverage of diverse populations and important niche matters confronting school personnel are systematically addressed in a uniform step-by-step manner replete with evidence-based practices that can be implemented immediately by practicing professionals.

Doing “what works” is the basis of evidence-based best practices, and when services work, they lead to consistent, efficacious, and documented benefits. Composed of contributed chapters from leading school psychology authors, the Desk Reference emphasizes sound application and comprehensive coverage within five topical sections: Assessment and Intervention (Cognitive, Academic, Social Emotional, Neuropsychology); Consultation; Medical Problems; Diversity in Learning; and Crises, Conditions, and Responses.

This comprehensive, detailed, and empirically supported resource renders the Desk Reference an ideal, practical go-to guide for all school-based professionals, including classroom teachers, counselors, social workers, and school psychologists.
