The presumption that these disabilities cause school-related problems detracts from identifying factors within the classroom that create and maintain a child’s underachievement and disruptive behavior. Moreover, when the disability is finally named, it provides no functional information that translates into effective coping strategies. Macht delves into the misunderstood structure of these disabilities, pointing out that they are not verifiable disabilities but weak constructs that poorly describe each child’s uniqueness. Finally, he provides an alternative model based on children‘s strengths rather than their deficiencies, and presents strategies that advance school-related success. . | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Educational Psychology; Adolescent Psychology; Medicalization; Behavioral Problems; ADD; ADHD; Dyslexia; Le | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-62974-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-87443-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-62974-2 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
