This volume addresses a significant void in family studies and child development literature by providing an empirically based guide to the causes, assessment and treatment of sibling aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCaspi considers both extreme (severe physical and sexual abuse) and lesser (competition and antagonism) forms of aggression and provides a step-by-step treatment program for five family dynamics that commonly exacerbate sibling aggression. Treatment is based on task-centered and family systems models and bolstered by case studies. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFills the void in the \"emerging frontier\" of sibling violence \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses both severe and lesser forms of aggression \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes step-by-step assessment and treatment procedures \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers case studies \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamines cross-cultural factors in sibling violence as well as abuse of disabled siblings \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Caspi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826124151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826124159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Jonathan Caspi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926579708159,"sku":"9780826124159","price":61.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3089bb19-d1d8-41cf-95ed-713ae985aebb.jpg?v=1681083863","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sibling-aggression-jonathan-caspi-9780826124159","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
