The underlying causes of behavior is a unifying theme integrated throughout this introductory text. Contents are organized around the interaction of four sets of causal factors: biological, cognitive, intrapsychic (personality processes), and environmental.

Promoting Emotional Resilience
Grounded in extensive research, this book presents a brief emotion-focused coping skills program that helps clients regulate their affective responses in stressful situations.

Purchasers get access to a companion website where they can download and print the volume's 16 reproducible handouts and forms in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size, and can also download a muscle relaxation training audio track.
