It includes an overview of the American Dietetic Association's Nutrition Care Process, with an emphasis on developing Problem-Etiology-Symptom statements and Assessment, Diagnosis, Intervention, Monitoring, and Evaluation documentation and more on the effectiveness of group work and motivational interviewing. Other updates include incorporation of factors affecting food behaviors; a new chapter on group facilitation and counseling; and a new chapter on cultural competence and special counseling, education, and communication issues for selected populations. It has new chapter assignments and activities, new sections on starting a private practice and marketing and technology, and other updates.
