Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
How Change Happens in Equine-Assisted Interventions gives clinicians and researchers an intervention theory on the mechanisms of change during psychotherapy and other interventions that incorporate horses. Chapters introduce the concept of intervention theory, present a theory of the problem (what the client comes with), theories explaining the intervention (what is done during a session), and theories of change (what happens in the mind of a client), with each theory’s function described. Using an autoethnographic approach, the authors describe, deconstruct, and analyze personal experiences as clients during an equine-assisted intervention. Then the authors present and apply a unique intervention theory by linking it to the thoughts and experiences of clients in and after a session. Practitioners will come away from this book with a unique perspective on the field and with an increased understanding of what their clients are thinking both in and out of session. Researchers will have an explanatory theory from which to draw testable hypotheses when studying interventions incorporating horses.

Effective Parenting and Caregiving: Practical Guidelines from Psychological Science equips readers with education and training to help them care most effectively for children—from infants to toddlers and grade schoolers, and on to adolescents. This scholarship teaches seven evidence-based life lessons—principles of human dynamics, which when practiced regularly, help children become healthier, happier, and more successful.Readers learn how to employ positive consequences to effectively influence behavior and apply the power of observational learning. They discover how to become a successful behavior-improvement coach with supportive and corrective feedback. They also learn how to practice empathy, manage behavior as a servant leader, and create an environment of mutual respect, interdependence, and interpersonal gratitude, all helping children achieve self-actualization—the application of personal capabilities for optimal accomplishment. Beyond this achievement is self-transcendence—the most valuable person-state for individuals and their social-support system. Readers learn how to reach that ultimate vision and help others do the same.Effective Parenting and Caregiving is an exceptional textbook for courses within the behavioral and social sciences, especially applied psychology and human development. It is also a valuable guidebook for parents, caregivers, or any individual who wants to optimize the quality of care for others at home, school, work, or throughout the community at large.
