{"product_id":"the-neats-a-child-family-assessment-9781450586108","title":"The NEATS: A Child \u0026 Family Assessment","description":"This is the first edition of the NEATS. A third edition is available. The third edition is much longer and has several new chapters on applications of the NEATS to cases and to common childhood issues. The NEATS is a child and family assessment that directs practitioner attention to five areas of human development and functioning that research has established as fundamental. These areas are neurobiology, executive function, attachment, trauma, and self-regulation. The title NEATS draws from the first letter of each of the five areas. The assessment is competency-based and ecological. It guides practitioners to identify resources, strengths, compe-tencies, and resilience within the ecologies in which children and families live their lives. The final chapter of this books shows how to use a NEATS assessment with autism spectrum disorders. A must book for parents and professionals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane F. Gilgun Ph.
