The Incredible 5-Point Scale : Assisting Students in Understanding Social Interactions and Managing Their Emotional Responses

The Incredible 5-Point Scale has sold hundreds of thousands of copies worldwide and has been used by educators, psychologists, therapists and parents to teach the social and emotional concepts needed for successful social interaction and emotional regulation.

In this revised edition, readers will benefit from work done with the scales over the past 20 years. These refinements now include new scales specifically designed for two groups of individuals: young children and those with more classic presentations of autism, including expanded use of the Anxiety Curve.

This much-awaited, revised edition includes:

• A new section expanding on the usage of the Anxiety Curve Model
• Supplemental information for its use with special educational teams
• Expanded information about diverse student populations
• Examples of scales are included showing usage with young children and those with limited communication skills
• Examples illustrate scales used with elementary school age children, adolescents and young adults
• Goals and objectives for using the scale in an IEP
