    Encyclopedia of Adolescence, Second Edition presents a comprehensive overview of the theories, methods, and empirical evidence needed to understand this critical developmental period. Split across 3 volumes, and spanning over 130 chapters, the title begins with an overview of the history of the study of adolescence and the emerging theories and tools used to study adolescent development, as well as normative changes of adolescence, encompassing a broad range of adolescent experiences. It then examines the interpersonal and socioecological contexts which are both shaped by the adolescent and play a formative role in the adolescent’s development.In conclusion, the book examines those experiences that can compromise healthy development in adolescence and the specific mental health challenges that are common or emergent during the adolescent years. This updated edition addresses identified gaps in the earlier edition, and in similar works, expanding coverage to topics that have often been overlooked but are key experiences, tasks, or contexts affecting adolescent development.

  • Neuroscience Without Representations

    Building a Brain-in-a-World View
    • 1 Edición
    • Óscar Vilarroya
    • Inglés
    In Neuroscience Without Representations, an Open Access book, Oscar Vilarroya addresses the notion of “representation” as used in expressions like “neural representation” or “mental representation”. This concept is fundamental in neuroscience, yet there remains no clear, universally accepted view on what it means for a nervous system to represent something, what constitutes a neural activity as a representation, and what is being re-presented.The book lays the foundation for a non-representational view of brain function. Building upon György Buzsáki’s critique of the theoretical framework underlying current cognitive neuroscience, Vilarroya argues that disciplines such as embodied and embedded cognition—collective... known as ‘4E cognition’—are driving a paradigm shift in our understanding of animal cognition.Rather than grounding cognition solely in representations, the author proposes an alternative: understanding cognition as enaction—the meaningful engagement of an organism to address situational requirements. The book supports this approach through detailed analyses of recent studies.

The inaugural volume of this series introduces 3 review articles and 7 original pieces of research, encompassing both behavioral experiments and neuroimaging studies. Our focus is on experimental research that sheds light on the immediate and long-term impact of physical exercise on cognition as well as expert opinions and systematic reviews that compile current findings and suggest avenues for upcoming research.

    • Shan Guisinger
    • Inglés
    An Evolutionary Approach to Understanding and Treating Anorexia Nervosa and Other Eating Problems embarks on an enlightening exploration of the intricate web that intertwines human evolution and the complex world of eating disorders. This book delves deep into the enigmatic realm of anorexia nervosa (AN), revealing the underlying mechanisms that have confounded clinicians for years. Drawing upon the latest research in neuroscience and genetics, Dr. Guisinger challenges conventional notions, contending that eating disorders are not simply psychological aberrations but rather adaptive responses forged by our ancestors' historical struggle against famine. This groundbreaking book unravels the neuroendocrine transformations that take place in genetically susceptible individuals when faced with starvation, shedding light on the bewildering juxtaposition of extreme hunger and the relentless fear of food.Each chapter guides readers through the intricate phases of treatment, offering a comprehensive roadmap for clinicians and caregivers. From the initial stages of treatment amidst starvation to the challenging journey of restoring patients to a healthy weight, this book provides a vital understanding of the physiological changes that must occur for a full recovery. This book also addresses the inherent flaws in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) and showcases the outcomes of psychotherapy research. But beyond anorexia nervosa, Dr. Shan Guisinger extends her expertise to encompass a broader perspective on the evolutionary roots of various eating disorders, ultimately emphasizing the pressing need to acknowledge and accommodate the universal influence of culture's stringent beauty standards. An Evolutionary Approach to Understanding and Treating Anorexia Nervosa and Other Eating Problems is a paramount guide for clinicians and researchers alike, offering a fresh and illuminating approach that bridges the gap between science and compassion, ultimately leading us toward more effective treatments and greater empathy for those afflicted by these complex conditions.

    • Inglés
    Approximately 1 in 36 children in the United States will be diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and that number is expected to rise according to the CDC. Interventions based on the science of applied behavior analysis (ABA) are one of the most common interventions for autistic individuals. One of the biggest problems facing the field of ABA-based interventions is ineffectiveness of intervention approaches due to the rigid application of ABA-based interventions. Progressive Approach to Applied Behavior Analysis provides practicing behavior analysts (e.g., BCBAs, BCaBAs, RBTs) and other clinicians with an in-depth introduction to a Progressive Approach to ABA and how it applies to common teaching methods within ABA-based interventions. This includes research and guidelines for implementing a Progressive Approach to ABA, potentially increasing the likelihood of meaningful outcomes for individuals diagnosed with ASD. This will become the guide for practitioners on how to use clinical judgment and in-the-moment assessment across various procedures.

  • Statistics for Applied Behavior Analysis Practitioners and Researchers

    • Inglés
    Professionals who provide services based on the principles of behavior are required to use evidence-based practices and to make data-based decisions regarding assessments and interventions. Doing so requires statistical literacy: competence in collecting, analyzing, interpreting and presenting aggregate quantitative data within or between subjects. Without statistical literacy, behavior analysts cannot take advantage of, or intelligently discuss, ongoing scientific developments around interventions for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Statistics for Applied Behavior Analysis Practitioners and Researchers provides practical and useful content for individuals who work directly with, or supervise those who work directly with, individuals with ASD. This book introduces core concepts and principles of modern statistical analysis that behavior analysts will need to deliver and consume the larger scientific literature. The organization of the book follows the common sequence of decisions for collecting, describing and analyzing data associated with behavior analytic service delivery and research.
