Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The literature in the field of school psychology suggests that the role of the school psychologist has been primarily as a person who conducts assessments for the special education population but that school psychologists desire to be engaged in additional services, such as prevention and direct intervention. Influences on the role of school psychologist may include: perceptions of consumer groups, the power and influence of the school principal and special education legislation. A qualitative study was conducted to obtain the perceptions of principals, as an individual consumer group, about current and desired school psychological services, as well as potential barriers to expanding the role. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten elementary school principals in Central/Northern New Jersey and the data were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis and Classical Content Analysis. Results suggested that principals perceived assessment to be the primary activity of the school psychologist and that many school psychologists were also involved in consultative activities, or served as a resource to staff and families. Most of the principals in this study expressed a desire for additional services, such as providing training to parents and staff, as well as having the school psychologist have more direct contact with students. The envisioned role was also seen as preventative rather than reactive with increased flexibility and increased visibility in the school. The perceived barriers to expanding the role of the school psychologist that were reported were time and financial constraints, as well as legislation. Principals in this study did not view themselves as being a critical influence in defining the role of the school psychologist. They suggested that school psychologists make a plan and approach the administration with recommendations of how to expand their services in the school. In order to facilitate this, training programs could place a greater emphasis on preparing school psychologists for the role of providing training and psycho-education, as well as preparing them for collaboration with administrators and other stakeholders in the school.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The role of the school psychologist has been in a state of flux for decades. Surveys have shown that teachers would like school psychologists to continue the duties of traditional assessment, while school psychologists would like to diversify their assessment duties to activities related more to prereferral, prevention and intervention (Franklin, 1995; Hartshorne & Johnson, 1985; Leach, 1985; Watkins, Crosby & Pearson, 2001). One hundred seventy-three special- and regular-education teachers from six elementary schools (labeled as either "traditional" or "progressive," according to school psychologists' self-reports) were given a questionnaire based on the National Association of School Psychologist (NASP) extended principles. Results indicate that there were neither significant differences between how special-education teachers and regular- education teachers rated their school psychologist, nor were there any significant differences between how teachers rated their school psychologist relevant to working in a traditional or progressive school. Implications and recommendations for the school- psychology profession are discussed"--Document.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years following the passage of Public Law 94-142, school psychologists' main role was to facilitate the placement of children into different educational programs (Fagan & Wise, 2000). The role of the school psychologist has shifted since that time, and today school psychology training programs produce practitioners who are equipped to handle much more. A continuation in the departure from the assessment and eligibility determination role of the school psychologist allows for a more proactive approach to problematic childhood and adolescent behaviors. A barrier that stands in the way of this role transformation are teachers' perceptions, knowledge, and reactions toward school psychologists. Teachers' perceptions and knowledge are particularly influential in determining the diversity, variability, and usefulness of school psychological services, as they are the main source of referrals (Merrell, Ervin, & Peacock, 2011). Therefore, it is important to understand teachers' perceptions of the role of the school psychologist because their perceptions influence how school psychologists are utilized to address student needs. Previous research in this area was conducted prior to the passage of Public Law 94-142 and does not reflect the changes mentioned above. The purpose of this study was to add updated research to this area and to understand the connection between teachers' perceptions and the role of the school psychologist. Forty preservice teachers from three teacher training programs completed a survey with different scenarios and were their perceptions about school psychologist would be equipped to handle the situation. Results indicated that the preservice teachers recognized the assessment role of the school psychologist but had less recognition of other roles. This finding suggests that teacher orientation presentations should communicate the breadth and depth of the role of the school psychologist so that they may be used to their full capabilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a long overdue conceptual framework for integrating evidence-based principles of school psychology leadership across NASP (National Association of School Psychologists) domains of practice. It explicates the myriad ways in which school psychologists can and should serve as leaders across the NASP domains, examines the leadership role of school psychologists within each NASP domain, and presents both historical and contemporary contexts of the domains of practice. Key areas of coverage include: Concrete examples of school psychologists as leaders in the field. Spearheading initiatives and service delivery models involving consultation and collaboration. Academic intervention planning. Behavioral and mental health services. Crisis intervention and prevention. Consultation, program evaluation, and ethics of professional practice. The book offers a cogent framework for practitioners and trainers of school psychologists to further integrate principles of leadership into their work in the field. The volume culminates with a discussion of the role of school psychologists as advocates for the practice through legislative and social justice policy. Principles of Leadership in School Psychology is an essential resource for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as professionals in school and clinical child psychology, educational policy and practice, and social work as well as all interrelated disciplines.
