Description: - vii, 47 p. : ill. ; 28 cm.
- "Building on Kari Dunn Buron's popular 'The Incredible 5-Point Scale', this book takes a narrower look at challenging behavior with a particular focus on behaviors that can spell trouble for adolescents and young adults who have difficulty understanding and maintaining social boundaries. Using a direct and simple style with lots of examples and hands-on activities, ' A 5 Is Against the Law!' speaks directly to adolescents and young adults. A section of the book is devoted to how to cope with anxiety before it begins to escalate, often leading to impulsive and unacceptable behavior. Throughout the book, the reader is encouraged to think about and create his own behavior on an anxiety scale that applies to his particular emotions and situations." - PUBLISHERS WEBSITE

Improve your social skills / by Daniel Wendler. - "[This book] is a comprehensive, practical guide to social skills. It explains the core principles of social interaction in clear, easy to follow lessons. I wrote "Improve Your Social Skills" to be the guide I desperately needed during my own social struggles. Growing up, I was the most socially awkward kid you could ever hope to meet. But when I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome inhigh school, I realized that my social problems were caused by lack of social skills, not by some inherent flaw in my character... I wrote "Improve Your Social Skills" to share the principles that have changed my life. These principles led me to a life full of close friendship, satisfying connection and tender romance... I want everyone to have that kind of life." - David Wendler in his Introduction

Social behavior and self-management : 5-point scales for adolescents and adults - "Building on the success of the legendary Incredible 5-Point Scale by Buron and Curtis, this book also uses scales as a way of explaining social and emotional concepts to individuals who have difficulty understanding such information but have a relative strength in understanding systems. The 5-point scales can be used to increase communication between the person on the spectrum and their support person. It can increase self-management skills and, once learned, it can serve as an excellent self-advocacy tool. As such, it is invaluable at school, on the job and in the community." - PUBLISHERS WEBSITE
