Psychosocial diagnosis and indication ILV
Lector: Mag.a Dr.in Judit Barth-Richtarz, MA
Lecture contents
Selected current discourses on psychosocial diagnostics as well as classificatory and psychodynamic classification of children's behavioral problems or symptoms, developmental disorders and educational difficulties are presented. The formation and conditional relationships of typical behavioural problems and (developmental) difficulties in childhood are illuminated (e.g. AD(H)S, enuresis, encopresis, aggressive behaviour,...). A diagnostic process from the initial interview to intervention planning is presented, taking into account central requirements for beneficial and successful diagnostic processes.
Another focus is on the design of diagnostic processes in enforcement contexts.
