about

Among evidence-based therapies for children and adolescents with oppositional, aggressive, and antisocial behavior, parent management training (PMT) is without peer; no other treatment for children has been as thoroughly investigated and as widely applied. Here, Alan Kazdin brings together theconceptual and empirical bases underlying PMT with discussions of background, principles, and concepts, supplemented with concrete examples of the ways therapists should interact with parents and children. The second half of the book is a PMT treatment manual. The manual details the particulars of the therapy: what is done to and by whom, what the therapist should say, and what to expect at each stage of treatment. It also contains handouts, charts, and aides for parents. A companion Web site(www.oup.com/pmt) provides additional resources for clinicians.
Alan E. Kazdin is Director and Chairman of the Child Study Center and John M. Musser Professor of Psychology at Yale University School of Medicine and President of the American Psychological Association.
