Pavuluri, Mani; Smith, Marita

Australian Journal of Early Childhood, v21 n2 p22-27 Jun 1996

Describes a pragmatic approach using cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) to help correct parents' dysfunctional cognitions and strengthen confidence in parenting. Details three components of CBT: (1) focusing on positive behavior; (2) ignoring negative behavior if not dangerous; and (3) using special time. Notes that positive reinforcement is key to these strategies. (HTH)
