Reflecting the latest advancements in the field and complete
DSM–5 criteria, Robert Weis’ Introduction to Abnormal Child and
Adolescent Psychology by Robert Weis provides students with a
comprehensive and practical introduction to child psychopathology. The
book uses a developmental psychopathology approach to explore the
emergence of disorders over time, describe the risks and protective
factors that influence developmental processes and trajectories, and
examine child psychopathology in relation to typical development and
children’s sociocultural context. The fully revised Fourth Edition
includes a new chapter on research methods, a greater emphasis on the
ways social-cultural factors affect each disorder covered, and recent
research findings on topics such as autism spectrum disorder and
adolescents’ use of nicotine and marijuana vaping products.
