The quiz was developed based on the 2010 printing of the book: The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children
by Ross Greene, Ph.D. Get 6 CE for just $69. The book is sold separately. The course instructor is Todd Finnerty, Psy.D.
"What's an explosive child? A child who responds to routine problems with extreme frustration-crying, screaming, swearing, kicking, hitting, biting, spitting, destroying property, and worse. A child whose frequent, severe outbursts leave his or her parents feeling frustrated, scared, worried, and desperate for help. Most of these parents have tried everything-reasoning, explaining, punishing, sticker charts, therapy, medication-but to no avail. They can't figure out why their child acts the way he or she does; they wonder why the strategies that work for other kids don't work for theirs; and they don't know what to do instead.
Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren't attention-seeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren't passive, permissive pushovers. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach to parenting.
Participants will be able to describe the Collaborative Problem Solving Approach; List factors associated with "explosive" behaviors in children and describe an intervention for preventing future explosive behaviors and teach children needed skills.

Book: The Ethics of Supervision and Consultation
This course is based on the book "The Ethics of Supervision and Consultation: Practice Guidance for Mental Health Professionals" by Janet T. Thomas. The book is sold separately. You will receive 6 credits in ethics for $79. The course instructor is psychologist Jennifer Finnerty, Psy.D. There are no conflicts of interest to disclose. Objectives- Participants will be able to: Describe the relevant ethical standards and guidelines of informed consent to supervision; Describe the need for professional consultation beyond initial training; Identify 3 models of supervision and Identify 3 goals of mandated supervision.
Psychologists can earn 6 continuing education hours in Ethics for completing this course based on the book
"Clinical supervision and consultation have long been considered integral elements of training and maintaining competency for psychologists and other mental health professionals. One of the primary responsibilities of supervisors is to help with the professional socialization of supervisees; instilling in them the relevant ethical principles and standards is a significant component of this charge. Although students may have considerable knowledge from graduate courses in professional ethics, it is usually in the context of a practicum or internship that the nuances and complexities of these issues begin to emerge. Supervisors must be present and attentive in order to capture and fully utilize those proverbial teachable moments in which the applications of ethical principles and standards might be recognized and internalized. The potential for misunderstanding and misapplication is significant for novice professionals, and it is supervisors who can provide the guidance necessary to protect the welfare of clients and educate supervisees. Even experienced professionals are vulnerable to ethical errors caused by other factors such as mismanaged countertransference, lack of knowledge about evolving standards, and personal problems that compromise objectivity and effectiveness. The Ethics of Supervision and Consultation: Practical Guidance for Mental Health Professionals represents the confluence of ethics with supervision and consultation. Supervision and consultation are treated as discrete areas of specialization, and ethics codes and specialty guidelines are analyzed in terms of their applications to this work. Supervisors and consultants are provided with both theoretical and practical strategies for incorporating ethical principles into their work."
