Michele; Slobodskaya, Helena R.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book presents an empirical model of commonly occurring individual differences in children that is derived from a large-scale research effort assessing parental and teacher perceptions of children in middle childhood. It examines eight characteristic behavioral traits, most of which have been widely shown to be present in infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. The book demonstrates the importance of considering profiles of these relatively stable individual differences for the educational, social, and emotional life of the child. It describes characteristic behaviors of children within each profile – emphasizing the assets and liabilities of each – and how they are perceived by their parents, teachers, and peers. Chapters explore issues related to the most developmentally effective management of children exhibiting each profile type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition, the book addresses a critical need in child development, parenting, and teaching to understand the wide range of individual differences observed every day in school-aged children. Not only does this volume underscore that commonly occurring differences can be understood as being normal and do not suggest a pathology, it also discusses implications of the model in diagnosing pathology. The book describes what is known about the stability of temperament behaviors and profiles across the lifespan as well as the origins of these behaviors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey topics addressed include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNurturing development of well-adjusted children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCauses of individual differences in children’s behavior.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperamental tendencies and profiles of children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiagnosing psychopathology in children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is a must-have resource for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians and related professionals in developmental, clinical child and school psychology, social work, public health, pediatrics, family studies, educational psychology and counseling, and allother interrelated disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-12-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030622107\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-62208-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 286\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44809699786892,"sku":"9783030622107","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030622107.jpg?v=1776793988","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030622107","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
