Woven throughout the text is the view that behavior stems from the continuous interaction of multiple influences, that the problems of the young are intricately tied to their social and cultural contexts, and that empirical approaches and the scientific method provide the best avenue for understanding the complexity of human behavior.
This edition explores the latest areas of research and tackles important contemporary topics, including:
- how to best classify and diagnose problems
- the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework
- the roles of genetics and early brain development and their interaction with the environment
- the complex roles of family and peers; sex/gender; and culture, ethnicity, and race in psychopathology
- progress in early intervention and prevention
- improvements in accessibility and dissemination of evidence-based treatments
- social issues such as poverty, child maltreatment, substance use, bullying/victimization, and terrorism and war
The "Accent" boxes foster discussion of current interest topics such as infant mental health, scientific evidence regarding vaccines and autism, suicidality in sexual minority youth, and the impact of stigmatization. The "Looking Forward" sections focus students’ attention on the central concepts to be addressed, while the "Looking Back" sections provide students with a synopsis of the chapter for further study and reflection. The text is also supplemented with online resources for students and instructors.
