Prestar servicios de atención temprana y apoyo a los niños con dificultades y a sus familias es una estrategia fundamental para promover la salud y el desarrollo. Para hacerlo de forma eficaz, es necesario tener en cuenta la influencia de los factores biológicos, psicológicos y sociales, y que los profesionales que se ocupen de ello formen un equipo interdisciplinar capaz de integrar y sintetizar la información proporcionada por las distintas disciplinas. Este Manual de atención temprana es un texto interdisciplinar que recoge las corrientes conceptuales actuales en las que se basan los procesos de desarrollo, así como la prevención, la evaluación y la intervención en distintos trastornos y contextos del desarrollo. En la parte primera se presenta el marco conceptual desde las vertientes psicológica y neuropsicológica. En la segunda parte se exponen los aspectos preventivos desde las ópticas del ámbito de la salud, por un lado, y del ámbito educativo, por otro. La parte tercera se ocupa de la evaluación neuropediátrica y sensomotriz y presenta las pruebas generales de evaluación del desarrollo infantil, ambiental y familiar. Los capítulos que componen la parte cuarta se centran en varias patologías típicas, ocupándose de su etiología, las características evolutivas específicas y la intervención más adecuada en cada caso. Finalmente, la última parte aborda la intervención familiar, especialmente en familias con niños con trastornos del desarrollo. Todo ello hace que esta obra se convierta en un texto de referencia para todos los estudiantes y profesionales de este campo de trabajo (educación social, enfermería, fisioterapia, logopedia, magisterio, medicina, pedagogía, psicología, psicopedagogía y trabajo social).

There have been huge advances in our ability to diagnose autism and in the development of effective interventions that can change children’s lives. In this extraordinary book, Lynn Kern Koegel, a leading clinician, researcher, and cofounder of the renowned Autism Research Center at the University of California at Santa Barbara, combines her cutting-edge expertise with the everyday perspectives of Claire LaZebnik, a writer whose experience with a son with autism provides a rare window into the disorder. Together, they draw on the highly effective “pivotal response” approach developed at the center to provide concrete ways of improving the symptoms of autism and the emotional struggles that surround it, while reminding readers never to lose sight of the humor that lurks in the disability’s quirkiness or the importance of enjoying your child. From the shock of diagnosis to the step-by-step work with verbal communication, social interaction, self-stimulation, meltdowns, fears, and more, the answers are here-in a book that is as warm and nurturing as it is authoritative.

First published in 2003. Children's Friendship Training is a complete manualized guide for therapists treating children with peer problems. This unique, empirically validated treatment is the first to integrate parents into the therapy process to ensure generalization to school and home. Representing over twelve years of research, Children's Friendship Training presents the comprehensive social skills training program developed by these pioneering authors. Step-by-step interventions help children develop the skills to initiate mutually satisfying social interactions. These interactions can lead to higher regard within the peer group and the development of satisfying dyadic relationships that will, in turn, serve to enhance overall well being. Clinical and empirical rationales, illustrative case examples and parent handouts that educate parents and give specific guidelines for homework assignments are presented for each treatment module. Brief relevant reviews of the child development literature and selective reviews of assessment techniques and other approached to children's social skills training are presented to sufficiently acquaint therapists interested in implementing children's friendship training.
