Emotional disturbance is arguably the most subjective IDEA disability category and one of the most difficult to assess. In this unique resource, a school attorney and a school psychologist combine case law with legally aligned assessment practices to guide you in making sound identification and evaluation decisions.
Along with a deep understanding of the five characteristics and elements of ED and the social maladjustment caveat, you gain strategies to:
- Simplify the evaluation and identification processes with multitiered, multimethod, multicontext, and multirater structures
- Recognize and consider cultural, racial, and gender bias to avoid overidentification of certain students
- Determine whether a student has an ED or a social maladjustment
- Apply lessons from case law to the issues and situations you face
- And more
