This book provides a comprehensive examination of the high correlation that exists between language impairment and a range of psychological disorders in children and adolescents. Nancy Cohen describes and discusses this relationship, its etiology and consequences for the child, and clinical issues in treating the disorder. The book: * focuses on children and adolescents with behavioural and emotional problems rather than those with severe disorders, such as autism * highlights the consequences of having problems with language and communication on interactions with the family, with peers, in school, and in the clinic * draws on findings from the literature, including the author's own research programme Illustrated throughout, case examples show how the integration of information concerning language and psychopathological functioning can enrich the clinical process with children and adolescents.
