Positive Psychology and Disability Series

The Positive Psychology and Disability book series provides comprehensive coverage of research and practice issues pertaining to the application of constructs and principles from the discipline of positive psychology across the disability context. In addition, books in the series address the application of strengths-based approaches to understanding disability and designing and implementing supports to enable people with disabilities to live, learn, work, and play as meaningful participants in their communities. Drawing from traditional areas of focus in positive psychology, series books:

• Provide cutting-edge research and practice that can improve the quality of life and well-being of people with disabilities.
  
• Address theory and research across such areas as hope, optimism, self-determination, and character strengths.
  
• Examine research- and evidence-based practices to promote involvement in goal setting, problem solving, and decision making.
  
• Synthesize research and practice from multiple disciplines and apply strengths-based approaches to disability.
  

Volumes published in this series are must-have resources for researchers, professors, clinicians and related professionals, and graduate students in developmental and positive psychology, special education, social work, child and school psychology, and other allied disciplines.
