Handbook of Psychology and Health, Volume IV by Shelley E. Taylor,Jerome E. Singer,Andrew Baum Pdf

Originally published in 1984, the study of psychological aspects of health was a rapidly expanding enterprise. Most of the contributors to this volume were trained as social psychologists or by social psychologists. Some have been more applied in their focus or on the edge of several fields. All, however, share a common approach, focusing on the individual as he or she is buffeted about by social forces and copes with these forces. All consider situational and psychological factors in the determination of behavior, emotion, or cognition and all apply their expertise to the study of health-related issues. The grouping of the chapters in this volume by the authors’ subspecialty, social psychology, is a somewhat unconventional method of clustering. Ordinarily, the materials presented here would be published in journals or texts concerned with behavior or psychosocial in health and medicine, or in specialty publications dealing with a particular disease or health issue. That clustering of articles is functional in providing information to those most likely to utilize it, but it diffuses the origin and background of the studies. These chapters speak to the diversity of health issues that are amenable to successful social psychological analysis.

Handbook of Psychology and Health, Volume I by Robert J. Gatchel,Andrew Baum,Jerome E. Singer Pdf

Originally published in 1982, this volume deals with behavioral medicine and clinical psychology. Much of what psychologists had been able to contribute to the study and treatment of health and illness had, to this point, been derived from clinical research and behavioral treatment. This volume presents some of this work, providing a fairly comprehensive view of the overlap between behavioral medicine and clinical psychology. Its purpose was to present some of the traditional areas of research and practice in clinical psychology that had directly and indirectly contributed to the development of behavioral medicine. Before the ‘birth’ of behavioral medicine, which subsequently attracted psychologists from many different areas ranging from social psychology to operant conditioning, the chief link between psychology and medicine consisted of the relationship, albeit sometimes fragile and tumultuous, between clinical psychology and psychiatry. Many of the behavioral assessment and treatment methods now being employed in the field of behavioral medicine were originally developed in the discipline of clinical psychology.

The Health Psychology Handbook by Lee M. Cohen,Dennis E. McChargue,Frank L. Collins Pdf

"It is sure to be an invaluable resource to scientist-practitioners during the education and training process as well as to those continuing their professional development . . . with this Handbook, we have a great resource to facilitate what is ready for translation from research to practice now. Our patients can benefit from these services now and we need a well-trained health care workforce to meet these needs." --From the Foreword by Cynthia D. Belar, Ph.D. ABPP The Health Psychology Handbook: Practical Issues for the Behavioral Medicine Specialist is a comprehensive yet practical volume that consolidates information needed by health psychologists working alongside other healthcare professionals. It facilitates the progression of the learner from the classroom to the clinical setting by focusing on the translation of science to practice using concrete examples. The Handbook is divided into four major parts. Part I highlights practical issues faced by health psychologists in a medical setting (how to motivate patients, consultation-liaison, assessment and screening, brief psychotherapies, ethical issues, etc.). Part II concentrates on treating unhealthy behaviors (alcohol and nicotine use, noncompliance, overeating/obesity, physical inactivity, stress). Part III considers behavioral aspects of medical problems (pain management, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, sexual dysfunction, HIV/AIDS, irritable bowel syndrome, insomnia). And Part IV takes up special issues relevant to practice and research in the field (minority issues, women′s issues, working with geriatric populations, public health approaches to health psychology and behavioral medicine). Besides considering health problems, the handbook also discusses professional issues, such as: Working with a multidisciplinary staff Conducting research Evaluating outcomes Practicing in public health settings The Handbook will prove an invaluable resource for those already working in the field of health psychology as well as for those in training. "The editors have developed an excellent sense of the needs of behavioral medicine practitioners . . . I found myself quite enthusiastic about the ability of the editors to conceptualize the problems of the practitioner and the ways to address them in this volume . . . The choice of authors is excellent." --William Lovallo, University of Oklahoma & VA Medical Center "A handbook like this is a very valuable resource . . . The clinical focus is what is special about the Handbook." --Lynn Kozlowski, Pennsylvania State University

APA Handbook of Clinical Psychology by Nnamdi Pole Pdf

"Welcome to Volume 4 of the five-volume APA Handbook of Clinical Psychology, dedicated to psychopathology and health. Epidemiological studies tell us that close to half of U.S. citizens will have a mental disorder at some point in their lifetime. Therefore, either you or someone you know has likely been touched by psychopathology. Perhaps even more will work to promote their health and improve their coping skills. We live in an amazing age in which the Internet enables access to information more easily and quickly than ever before. Individuals who want to learn about psychopathology and health can type those words into their favorite search engine and instantly receive more information than they could ever digest. The new challenge of our age is sifting through this deluge of information to identify valid, trustworthy, and authoritative sources of knowledge. The editorial team has worked hard to establish the APA Handbook of Clinical Psychology as such a source. I hope that this handbook provides you with the most up-to-date knowledge about not only psychopathology but also psychological health. Each chapter in the handbook has been carefully scrutinized by the editors, who have decades of experience and expertise in organizing overviews of the psychological literature for general consumption. In developing the handbook, our goal and commitment has been to render an accurate yet accessible resource for libraries, students, professors, fellow psychologists, and others looking for a balance of depth and breadth"--Introduction.
