Description
Understanding the factors that place an individual at greater risk of developing psychopathology has important implications for both treatment
and prevention of psychological disorders. Of critical relevance in this regard is the exploration of the potential influence of the
family. Parenting and the family environment are considered to significantly contribute to a child's early development and adjustment.
It follows then that parental behavior may also be of importance in the development, maintenance and or the prevention of psychopathology.
Over the past 50 years there has been a considerable amount of research as well as controversy surrounding the link between parenting
and psychopathology. The purpose of this book is to provide researchers and clinicians with state-of-the art research findings, presented
by experts in the field, on the role of the family in the development and maintenance of psychopathology.
This edited book is divided
into 3 sections. The first addresses broader issues of theory and methodology and the second provides separate chapters relating to the
role of the family in the development and maintenance of specific psychopathologies. A final section discusses the involvement of the
family in treatment and prevention.
Audience
Students and researchers in clinical psychology, developmental psychology. Clinicians in psychology and psychiatry and other mental health professionals.
