Resource-oriented education offers an innovative biological-psychological educational approach that aims for a sustainable satisfaction of the innate psychological basic needs of children and adolescents, thereby focusing on central conditions for successful education. Numerous examples from educational counseling practice demonstrate how a consistent needs-based, resource-oriented thinking and action by parents and other educators can optimize the situational and habitual biopsychosocial well-being of children and adolescents through experiences that satisfy their basic needs, thus providing favorable opportunities for self-optimization. Since the presented educational concept is based on relevant findings from neuroscience and psychological foundational research, it is less influenced by current educational trends. It is understood as a cross-school educational approach of biologically oriented educational psychology, with its neurobiological foundations presented for the first time in the second, revised edition for all psychological basic needs. The book is aimed at students and professionals in psychology, education, and social sciences, as well as students from universities of applied sciences for social pedagogy, and also at pediatricians, teachers, social workers, and educators.
