Rehabilitation psychology is one of the fastest growing fields in psychology and involves the application of psychological theory, research, and practice to the assessment and treatment of individuals with disabilities and chronic health conditions. Rehabilitation psychologists aim to optimize outcomes in terms of health, independence, and daily functioning while also minimizing secondary health problems. Moreover, rehabilitation psychologists work across healthcare and educational settings to provide assessment and clinical care, conduct research, increase knowledge, and advocate for changes to enhance the lives of individuals with disabilities and their families. The second edition of The Oxford Handbook of Rehabilitation Psychology provides foundational knowledge and an evidence-based overview of the psychological theory, processes, and multi-level interventions that are critical in the prevention and management of the consequences of illness and injury. Bringing together a range of perspectives and expertise as well as contributions from international researchers and practitioners, this volume is guided by a biopsychosocial framework and informed by the World Health Organization's International Classification of Function. Including 46 chapters across four sections, the Handbook includes chapters on the background and theory of rehabilitation psychology, cross cutting issues in the field, clinical applications and diagnostic information, and professional issues and future challenges. The chapters also highlight the research evidence associated with critical areas, applied interventions, and wider conceptual, clinical, and professional themes associated with disability and society. Overall, this edition provides a comprehensive update to the relevant psychological processes and associated interventions that are critical in enabling individuals and society to manage the consequences of disability and chronic disease.
