The Psychology of Underachievement

Differential Diagnosis and Differential Treatment

By: Harvey P. Mandel,Sander I. Marcus

An integrated approach to the psychology of underachievement, unifying theory and practice. Examines different types of underachievers, explores the relationship between personality and underachievement, and provides useful guidelines for clinical practice. Provides an outline and summary of the voluminous (and often contradictory) literature, then presents theoretical models of the underachiever that are grounded in mainstream diagnostic and therapeutic theory. Offers examples of each personality type, so practitioners can easily recognize and treat them.

Short-Term Psychotherapy and Brief Treatment Techniques

An Annotated Bibliography 1920–1980

By: Harvey P. Mandel

The Scope of Brief Therapy Within the last two decades there has been a dramatic expansion in the uses of short-term treatment (Grayson, 1979, Small, 1979). Brief therapies have been and continue to be widely used with a number of different patient popu lations in a broad variety of service settings. They have been reported in use with children, adolescents, adults~ and the aged; in groups, families, and individual treatment; on college campuses, high schools, in community mental health centers, in child guidance clinics, in private psychiatric clinics, in hospitals as part of out-patient or in-patient therapy, in programs of preventive community mental health; with the rich, the middle class, and the poor (Barten, 1971, 1972; Caplan, 1961, 1964; Small, 1979; Wolberg, 1965). Further, short term methods of therapy range across all of the major and well-known theoretical orientations found in the broader field of psychotherapy. There are some unique theoretical contributions which can be found within this field as well.

Why Children Underachieve and what to Do about it

By: Harvey P. Mandel,Loral Dean,Sander I. Marcus

This work provides detailed techniques for recognizing, understanding and effectively helping under-achieving children of any age in school and at home. This book states that all under-achievers are not alike, identifying the six under-achiever styles: coasting; overanxious; identity-searching; wheeler-dealing; sad and defiant. It also offers programs tailored to each type of under-achiever including a detailed list and analysis of characteristics, a parent checklist, realistic dialogues, ways to help, and a profile of that type of under-achiever as an adult. There is a chapter on related problems, including learning disabilities and giftedness and where to get professional help.
