Abstract
The procedures used in and the outcomes produced by cognitive-behavior al treatments for psychological problems in youth are reviewed. The th eoretic underpinnings of cognitive-behavioral interventions are descri bed, and the general intervention strategies are detailed and discusse d. With reference to specific clinical disorders in children (e.g., an xiety, depression, aggression), the differential application of cognit ive-behavioral strategies and procedures and the overall outcomes of r esearch evaluations are considered. Future directions for theory devel opment, practical application, and research evaluations are offered.
