520 _a The most timely and authoritative information available on the rapidly expanding literature on psychopathology in mentally retarded persons is presented in this long-awaited update. In it, today's leading experts cover all the major areas of psychopathology. Travis Thompson, Sara Axtell, and David Schaal discuss self-injury by people with mental retardation and autism. David A. Coe and Johnny L. Matson cover the largely neglected conditions of hyperactivity, sexual difficulties, and tic disorders. William I. Gardner and Christine L. Cole look at aggression and related conduct disorders. Thomas H. Ollendick, Donald P. Oswald, and Duane G. Ollendick review anxiety disorders as they appear in persons with mental retardation. Robert Sovner and Robert J. Pary assess the area of affective disorders in developmentally disabled persons. Raymond G. Romanczyk, Stephanie Lockshin, and Kelly Harrison look at the complex issue of the coexistence or parallelism of psychopathology for individuals with mental retardation - in particular schizophrenia and autism. And in an enlightening discussion, William E. MacLean reviews the field of psychopathology and mental retardation since the publication of the first edition of this book in 1982. In each chapter the experts not only cover the experimental literature, but also critically analyze the field, including a look at current strengths and needs for future research. Included in this edition is a new chapter on hyperactivity and drug abuse, and personality disorders.
