Aggression and Other Disruptive Behavioral Challenges: Biomedical and Psychosocial Assessment and Treatment

Aggression and related behavioral difficulties represent frequent targets of biomedical and psychosocial interventions, and this book describes a multimodal contextual case formulation model that translates these treatment approaches into a single integrative focus. The various modalities—such as biomedical, psychological, and social environmental—and context conditions that influenced frequency, severity, variability and durability of agressive responding are examined to provide an integrative diagnostic basis for individual-centered treatments.
