About the Book

This volume provides practicing clinicians and researchers with an update on treatments found to be effective in pediatric psychology as well as those that are emerging in the field and have promise of being proven effective as additional research is conducted. Several chapters contain descriptions of different treatment protocols as well as specific scripts for certain procedures. These materials will be useful to clinicians in their day-to-day practice and clinical researchers in implementing and/or developing research protocols. Leading pediatric psychology intervention researchers generously provide details of their treatments for a number of pediatric problems. This book provides a means by which treatment manuals and related data on the outcomes of interventions can be disseminated to practicing pediatric psychologists and to investigators. Readers can gain access to treatment protocols developed by leading pediatric psychology researchers at a website specifically
developed for this book. Readers may use these manuals in clinical work or contact the manual developers if interested in using/adapting the manuals for research protocols. This website will be updated with additional treatment manuals for problems encountered in the practice of pediatric psychology.

About the Author:
Anthony Spirito, Ph.D. is Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behavior and Director of the Clinical Psychology Training Consortium at Brown University. He is Past President of the Society for Pediatric Psychology and was Action Editor for the Journal of Pediatric Psychology's series on Empirically Supported Treatments.

Dr. Spirito has published on a wide variety of topics in pediatric psychology such as social adjustment in chronic illness and sleep disorders, but is best known for the development of a widely-used brief screening measure of coping. He is currently involved in several intervention projects that address a broad range of adolescent health risk behaviors. One study is a multi-site, randomized controlled trial of SSRIs alone or in combination with cognitive-behavioral therapy for treatment-resistant adolescent depression. He is also conducting a combined individual/family motivational interview for alcohol-positive adolescents seen in the emergency room. Additionally, he is a member of a research team testing cognitive-behavioral treatment for adolescents with both suicidality and substance abuse.

Anne E. Kazak, Ph.D., ABPP is Professor and Director of Psychology Research in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. She is also the Director of the Department of Psychology at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and the Director of the Center for Pediatric Traumatic Stress at CHOP.
Additionally, she serves as Deputy Director of the Behavioral Health Center at CHOP. Dr. Kazak is the current Editor of the Journal of Family Psychology and the immediate past editor of the Journal of Pediatric Psychology. She is the current President-Elect of the Society of Pediatric Psychology.

Dr. Kazak and her research team focus on families of children with serious pediatric illness. Using developmental and social ecological perspectives, this work is directed toward understanding how children, families, and other systems respond to the demands of illness and treatment over time. Her current research is focused on psychosocial assessment and interventions to promote competence in families facing the adversities associated with pediatric illnesses, with a particular emphasis on childhood cancer. Assessing risk in families and interventions targeted at pain, posttraumatic stress, and family distress during acute phases of treatment are current federally funded studies in her laboratory.
