Abstract
This handbook provides a concise introduction to theories of human behavior for social work and allied helping professions. It is intended as an aid for educators and students to `encourage teaching and learning about human behavior theories that are useful to guide social work practice. The handbook includes outlines of key ideas of systems theories, empowerment theories, and theories of personality and human development. Theories are presented in ways that facilitate comparison and critical reflection for their insights and limitations. Additional resources include a sample course syllabus, supplemental materials for assignments, learning exercises, and a list of selected publications that relate to cultural and spiritual diversity. The design of this course and its resources illustrate in detail one way to infuse the topic of spiritual diversity into teaching about theories of human behavior.
