Abstract:

This study investigated the effect of bibliotherapy as an intervention for aggressive elementary children at a residential treatment center in the western United States. Bibliotherapy was provided for six children, three boys and three girls, ages 9 to 11, Caucasian and Hispanic, who took part in one of two groups. The study involved a multi-baseline design, beginning with a baseline phase, followed by two separate intervention phases comprised of eight sessions of bibliotherapy. Data gathered from almost daily observations along with pre- and post-intervention ratings of aggressive behavior

Abstract:

Bibliotherapy is an innovative therapeutic technique that uses reading as a helping process for dealing with stress. It has been proposed as a mental health approach for individuals facing social, psychological or developmental problems. As reading tends to be a non-threatening method of sharing problems, a bibliotherapy group was implemented for 12 weeks with eight alert elderly people who had difficulties coping with their current life situation in a long-term care institution. The effectiveness of a bibliotherapeutic approach with this population is evaluated and implications for social wor

This anxiety can lead to high levels of stress and poor performance and can impact on confidence and emotional and academic wellbeing. O

Abstract:

The problem upon which this study is based, is to determine the importance of bibliotherapy to children who are exposed to daily violence in society. Exposure to daily violence have detrimental consequences for these children which result in that it is a traumatic experience for them, that could affect personality development and interpersonal relations. This reseach is done within the context of a school situated in a violence society which provide the ideal oppurtunity to reach such children. The school provides an atmosphere which is conducive to reading and verbalisation.

Abstract:

Anger is a ubiquitous and potentially destructive emotion, and problem anger is at least as common across community, clinical and forensic contexts as mood or anxiety disorders. Yet anger has been relatively neglected in the world of psychology—it is strangely overlooked in abnormal psychology courses and in current psychopathology classification systems; and current anger treatments, while promising, lag behind comparable treatments for mood or anxiety disorders in terms of their theoretical rationales, evidence base and effectiveness. Cognitive appraisal models of anger are well supported by

The death of a parent by suicide is especially traumatic. Researchers estimate the number of children in the United States annually who experience their parent's suicide ranges from 7,000 to 30,000. These child survivors experience more complicated grief as compared to children bereaved by a parent's non-suicidal death. In particular, very young children have difficulty understanding that their parent completed suicide. Across time they struggle with confusion and intense emotions associated with their parent's suicide. Due to the stigma associated with suicide, feelings of guilt, and intense

The term “Bibliotherapy” was first coined in 1916. It was mainly used in hospitals for veterans and psychiatric patients before the 1970s (Alexander & Buggie, 1976).

Russell (1958) defined bibliotherapy as the application of relevant literature to deal with the client’s personal problem and developmental needs at the proper time.
