Aggression Replacement Training and Childhood Trauma
Amendola, A. Mark; Oliver, Robert W.
Reclaiming Children and Youth, v22 n2 p56-61 Sum 2013
Aggression Replacement Training (ART) was developed by the late Arnold Goldstein of Syracuse University to teach positive alternatives to children and youth with emotional and behavioral problems (Glick & Gibbs, 2011; Goldstein, Glick, & Gibbs, 1998). ART provides cognitive, affective, and behavioral interventions to build competence in social skills, anger control, and moral reasoning. With a focus on building strengths and restoring dignity, young people learn to take responsibility for their behavior, manage emotions, and build respectful interpersonal relationships. This article describes how strength-building ART strategies can enhance other therapeutic models which are specifically designed to serve traumatized children and youth.
