the cognitive approach
the systems-based approach
the behavioural approach
the psychodynamic approach.
Also included is a chapter devoted to supporting pupils with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. The chapter contains new information on identifying and assessing the condition and suggests effective intervention strategies, such as developing self-esteem and interpersonal skills.
