Book Description
Chez l’enfant et l’adolescent, le Trouble Déficit de l’Attention/Hyperactivité (TDAH) constituent le trouble psychique le plus répandu. Il compte parmi les causes de consultations les plus courantes en pédopsychiatrie, en psychothérapie d’enfants et en pédiatrie. Mais qu’est-ce que le Trouble Déficit de l’Attention/Hyperactivité ? Quels en sont les symptômes et les causes ? Comment le traiter ? Et quels sont les enjeux d’une prise en charge précoce et multimodale ? Ce nouveau livre de la collection Savoir pour guérir a été écrit par deux spécialistes, un Allemand et un Français et est le fruit de leurs échanges et leur expérience sur cette maladie dans deux pays voisins. Il va tenter d’apporter aux parents, à l’entourage et à toutes les personnes qui se sentiraient concernées et intéressées par la maladie des réponses claires et concrètes, tout en restant scientifiques et médicales. Encore une fois un livre pour savoir et pour guérir.
Book Description
Diagnostics et psychothérapies pour les enfants victimes de troubles de l'attention. Malgré les nombreuses connaissances sur le TDAH, de nombreuses questions restent ouvertes en la matière. L'hyperactivité existe-t-elle vraiment ou est-ce un phénomène de mode ? Quelles sont les conséquences sur la personne TDAH et son entourage ? Existe-t-il une prise en charge efficace pour ce trouble ? Cet ouvrage se propose d'expliquer la nature de ce trouble, son fonctionnement et ses répercussions, afin d'en améliorer la prise en charge thérapeutique. Une meilleure information est essentielle pour reconnaître le handicap réel du TDAH sur le futur de l'enfant. Elle favorise le dialogue entre les intervenants, les enfants TDAH et leur famille. Ce livre expose nos connaissances actuelles dans le domaine du TDAH : l'historique de ce trouble et de son traitement, la mise au point diagnostique, l'évolution, les comorbidités, la prévalence, le pronostic et l'étiologie. Le processus d'évaluation est abordé au passage. Les procédures d'intervention dans le TDAH sont présentées en détails.Les approches psychothérapeutiques (l'entraînement parental, la gestion des contingences à l'école et la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale) ainsi que le traitement psychopharmacologique sont approfondis.

Book Description
Recent years have seen important developments in the computer and game industry, including the emergence of the concept of serious games. It is hypothesized that tools such as games, virtual reality, or applications for smartphones may foster learning, enhance motivation, promote behavioral change, support psychotherapy, favor empowerment, and improve some cognitive functions. Computers and games may create supports for training or help people with cognitive, emotional, or behavioral change. Games take various formats, from board games to informatics to games with interactive rules of play. Similarly, computer tools may vary widely in format, from self-help or assisted computerized training to virtual reality or applications for smartphones. Some tools that may be helpful for mental health were specifically designed for that goal, whereas others were not. Gamification of computer-related products and games with a numeric format tend to reduce the gap between games and computers tools and increase the conceptual synergy in such fields. Games and computer design share an opportunity for creativity and innovation to help create, specifically design, and assess preventive or therapeutic tools. Computers and games share a design conception that allows innovative approaches to overcome barriers of the real world by creating their own rules. Yet, despite the potential interest in such tools to improve treatment of mental disorders and to help prevent them, the field remains understudied and information is under-disseminated in clinical practice. Some studies have shown, however, that there is potential interest and acceptability of tools that support various vehicles, rationales, objectives, and formats. These tools include traditional games (e.g., chess games), popular electronic games, board games, computer-based interventions specifically designed for psychotherapy or cognitive training, virtual reality, apps for smartphones, and so forth. Computers and games may offer a true opportunity to develop, assess, and disseminate new prevention and treatment tools for mental health and well-being. Currently, there is a strong need for state-of-the-art information to answer questions such as the following: Why develop such tools for mental health and well-being? What are the potential additions to traditional treatments? What are the best strategies or formats to improve the possible impact of these tools? Are such tools useful as a first treatment step? What is the potential of a hybrid model of care that combines traditional approaches with games and/or computers as tools? What games and applications have already been designed and studied? What is the evidence from previous studies? How can such tools be successfully designed for mental health and well-being? What is rewarding or attractive for patients in using such treatments? What are the worldwide developments in the field? Are some protocols under development? What are the barriers and challenges related to such developments? How can these tools be assessed, and how can the way that they work, and for whom, be measured? Are the potential benefits of such products specific, or can these additions be attributed to nonspecific factors? What are the users’ views on such tools? What are the possible links between such tools and social networks? Is there a gap between evidence-based results and market development? Are there any quality challenges? What future developments and studies are needed in the field?

Book Description
Le diagnostic du trouble de l'attention avec ou sans hyperactivité est difficile à établir, bien qu'il touche près de 5 % de la population infanto-juvénile. Il est donc impératif d'aider le professionnel à mieux repérer cette pathologie pour mieux la traiter. Les sept chapitres développés dans cet atelier décrivent les étapes qui conduisent de la suspicion du trouble à sa prise en charge. Les symptômes, les diverses manifestations ainsi que les comorbidités (notamment le trouble anxieux) qui en modifient la perception sont clairement exposés. L'alliance thérapeutique qui s'instaure tout au long de la relation, de l'entretien clinique aux traitements, est largement décrite. Des outils d'évaluation diagnostique, des illustrations cliniques détaillées, des définitions et des résumés de synthèse font de cet ouvrage un véritable guide pratique.

Book Description
Bullying has long been tolerated as a rite of passage among children and adolescents. There is an implication that individuals who are bullied must have "asked for" this type of treatment, or deserved it. Sometimes, even the child who is bullied begins to internalize this idea. For many years, there has been a general acceptance and collective shrug when it comes to a child or adolescent with greater social capital or power pushing around a child perceived as subordinate. But bullying is not developmentally appropriate; it should not be considered a normal part of the typical social grouping that occurs throughout a child's life. Although bullying behavior endures through generations, the milieu is changing. Historically, bulling has occurred at school, the physical setting in which most of childhood is centered and the primary source for peer group formation. In recent years, however, the physical setting is not the only place bullying is occurring. Technology allows for an entirely new type of digital electronic aggression, cyberbullying, which takes place through chat rooms, instant messaging, social media, and other forms of digital electronic communication. Composition of peer groups, shifting demographics, changing societal norms, and modern technology are contextual factors that must be considered to understand and effectively react to bullying in the United States. Youth are embedded in multiple contexts and each of these contexts interacts with individual characteristics of youth in ways that either exacerbate or attenuate the association between these individual characteristics and bullying perpetration or victimization. Recognizing that bullying behavior is a major public health problem that demands the concerted and coordinated time and attention of parents, educators and school administrators, health care providers, policy makers, families, and others concerned with the care of children, this report evaluates the state of the science on biological and psychosocial consequences of peer victimization and the risk and protective factors that either increase or decrease peer victimization behavior and consequences.
