Precise characteristics of techniques will be highlighted. Precedures will be modeled by the presenters and practiced by the audience. Similarities and differences in the purposes and the results of these approaches will be dis- cussed. It will be shown how procedures differ across age levels including preschool and school-age children, teenagers, and adults. Time will be pro- vided through out for questions and discussion.
