      L'adaptation à l'école, milieu normatif par excellence, ne se fait pas sans heurt. Si pour certains enfants ou jeunes aucune manifestation extérieure n'apparaît, pour d'autres les difficultés sont handicapantes. Les causes et les manifestations des problèmes d'adaptation sont multiples.

Œuvre d'une collaboration fructueuse entre universitaires et praticiens de la psychologie de l'éducation, cet ouvrage propose des conseils pratiques, des situations cliniques, des analyses de situations types et des éléments théoriques qui dessinent le contexte dans lequel évolue quotidiennement le psychologue scolaire.
