This book will help cognitive behavioral psychotherapists adopt a transdiagnostic approach in their practice. In recent years, a new approach in psychotherapy has been arguing for a move from a focus on specific diagnoses to a transdiagnostic approach that targets psychological mechanisms and processes common to different mental health conditions in order to develop more personalized treatments. This book shows how to adopt a transdiagnostic approach using different third wave cognitive behavioral therapy protocols, such as: Functional Analytic Psychotherapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Trial-Based Cognitive Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Metacognitive Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Process-Based Therapy and the Unified Protocol.

Cognitive task analysis is a broad area consisting of tools and techniques for describing the knowledge and strategies required for task performance. Cognitive task analysis has implications for the development of expert systems, training and instructional design, expert decision making and policymaking. It has been applied in a wide range of settings, with different purposes, for instance: specifying user requirements in system design or specifying training requirements in training needs analysis. The topics to be covered by this work include: general approaches to cognitive task analysis, system design, instruction, and cognitive task analysis for teams. The work settings to which the tools and techniques described in this work have been applied include: 911 dispatching, faultfinding on board naval ships, design aircraft, and various support systems.

COACTIV applies a broad, innovative conceptualization of teacher competence to examine how mathematics teachers’ knowledge, beliefs, motivational orientations, and self-regulation skills influence their instructional practice and teaching outcomes In this project data was collected on various aspects of teacher competence and classroom instruction from the perspective of both the teachers themselves and their students. Moreover, it gauges the effects of these teacher characteristics on student learning, as indexed by the progress students in each class. Questions addressed in the study which are reported in this volume include: What are the characteristics of successful teaching? What distinguishes teachers who succeed in their profession?
