Description

This impressive volume reintroduces the importance of -- and the contributions made by -- social psychology to school psychology.

It provides an overview of the basic areas of social psychology (history, attitudes, attribution, attraction, and research methods) as well as the traditional school psychology functions (assessment, therapy, and consultation).

To unite these two crucial areas, the editors and their contributors provide detailed discussions of specific educational and social issues such as substance abuse prevention and treatment, loneliness, cooperative versus competitive environments, and integration of handicapped and culturally different children.

Based on classical, contemporary, and cutting-edge research and theory, this text should become an essential reference tool for all school psychologists.
