It allows for substantial anecdotal recording, comparison of behavior to a non-referred peer, and substantial flexibility in types of behavioral coding. The chart is in Microsoft Word format. This chart is courtesy of Cammie Neal, Intervention Specialist with Forsyth School System. The form has specific check boxes for identifying potential functions.

Depression is often underidentified in children.
As a result, many go undiagnosed and suffer needlessly. The Childhood Depression Sourcebook provides insight into why children get depressed, how to identify symptoms, and where to find appropriate treatment. This unique book also emphasizes working with schools on both the academic and social level to help children adjust. I appreciate his way of breaking-down the information into subchapters that is easily understood. A great tool in observing the depressive behaviors in children.
