For courses in Behavior Management.

With a new co-author and updating of every chapter, the eighth edition of this comprehensive, popular text again combines a thorough grounding in research with realistic case studies and dozens of examples to demonstrate behavior management theory as it applies to both general and special education settings. Blending theory with “how to's,” the authors explain the field of behavior management from four perspectives―behavioral, psychodynamic, biophysical, and environmental―in straightforward, jargon-free prose that instantly engages future teachers in time-honored, research-supported techniques and strategies for encouraging desired behavior and discouraging undesired behavior. The goal? A practical guide to creating a peaceful, task-focused educational environment in which children can truly learn―and enjoy that learning.
