Outrageous Behavior Modification: Handbook of Strategic Interventions for Managing Impossible Students

Description

The second edition of this unconventional handbook is a revised, expanded, and even more powerful version of the first controversial work. Developed by eccentric school psychology practitioners, this outrageous text introduces such methods as planned confusion, disruptive word pictures, unconscious suggestion, double-bind predictions, off-the-wall interpretations, and even some straight-face paradoxical assignments. It's perfect for educators who have had enough behavior management theory but not enough success in managing difficult students. Many of the methods presented are powerfully hypnotic and strategic in nature and are intended to effectively neutralize student resistance at a deeper personality level. Outrageous Behavior Mod (OBM) is not intended for average kids who may be having a bad day. These methods were developed specifically for those hard core "you can't make me" students. In fact, the OBM strategies have been described as "programmatic judo" that actually use student resistance to fuel compliance. It has been stated that ."the more rigid, stubborn, and defiant a student is, the better these OBM methods work!" To help introduce the teacher to OBM practice, this book is filled with step-by-step protocols, scripts, coupons, behavior permits, stimulus cards, and wacky assignments for oppositional students.
