School Psychologists' Preferences on Response to InterventionMike, Kristen Lynne January 2010 (has links)
As a result of the reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, 2004), Response to Intervention (RTI) became a legal and acceptable basis for determining special education eligibility. While there may be evidence that RTI has had positive effects on the prereferral process for special education in some schools, there still remains controversy in the field of school psychology about many aspects of RTI, in particular the use of RTI in the identification process for children with learning disabilities. The purpose of current questionnaire study was (a) to determine school psychologists' preferences on the use of RTI in both the prereferral and the identification process of students with learning disabilities, (b) to investigate the implementation process in school systems from school psychologists' perspectives, and (c) to examine the role of the school psychologist in RTI implementation efforts and RTI activities.Data were collected from 41 members of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). Each participant completed a survey, which related to the above purposes, and responded to items using a 5-point Likert scale. Results indicated that sampled school psychologists generally responded favorably to RTI as a prereferral method, but varied on their level of agreement on using RTI for diagnostic purposes. Most respondents agreed that RTI should not be the sole criteria for determining a learning disability and that a comprehensive evaluation should take place including standardized cognitive and academic testing. Identified benefits to implementing RTI were: interventions for struggling students occur earlier, improved instruction for all students, greater collaboration between general and special education, and improved method of identifying at risk groups/individuals. Identified challenges to implementing RTI were: need for professional development, lack of teacher preparation, lack of support staff to implement interventions, and intervention fidelity. A majority of respondents agreed that the school psychologist's role should include various RTI activities and in particular RTI activities related to data interpretation, consultation, supervising, and training.

Educational psychologists' perceptions of their role in the Pietermaritzburg area.Pitchford, Tessa May January 2008 (has links)
With vast changes occurring in the South African context since 1994, it is clear that the role of educational psychologists has also shifted. While changes have occurred, numerous difficulties still exist within the education sector highlighting the need for educational psychologists. However, there appears to be disagreement about how the role is perceived in the Health Professions Council of South Africa, training institutions and in practice. For these reasons, this study seeks to unpack educational psychologists' perceptions of their role within the Pietermaritzburg area. A qualitative methodology is employed using semi-structured interviews with a number of practitioners in the area. The study found that the role of educational psychologists is complex, affected by individual variables and various contextual shifts and tensions. This finding has implications for the training of educational psychologists and raises questions around their place within education itself. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2008.

Partnerships in mental health : effective referral and collaboration between family physicians and psychologistsWitko, Kim, University of Lethbridge. Faculty of Education January 2003 (has links)
This study looked at physicians' perceptions of the existing process of referral and collaboration between themselves and psychologists. Specifically, this study sought to identify the barriers to referral and collaboration in an effort to improve referral and collaboration between these two fields. A total of nine family physicians were interviewed. Overall, the barriers that were identified by physicians included a lack of feedback provided by psychologists, a low level of collaboration with psychologists, physicians' perception of the financial inaccessibility of psychological care, the lack of information that physicians have on psychologists, and physicians not knowing the resources that were available. Addressing these barriers appears to involve some combination of improving psychologists' feedback and collaboration with physicians, providing physicians with information and education on psychologists and their services, and improving the financial accessibility for patients to receive psychological
services. / xiii, 156 leaves ; 28 cm.

School psychological services : current views of teachers and school psychologists about actual and preferred roles in IndianaHanson, Daryl J. January 2004 (has links)
Surveys were used to explore the perceptions of teachers and school psychologists about school psychological services in the state of Indiana. Respondents were 114 school psychologists (30.48% return rate) and 375 teachers of various specialties (32.89% return rate). Data was analyzed using descriptive and comparative statistics with attention given to the influence of demographic variables (e.g., years of experience, specialty area). Results indicated that school psychologists' primarily engage in testing and related activities despite their aspirations to engage in a broader range of roles. In addition, the school psychologists expressed a desire to work less with students referred for testing and increase their time involvement with other student groups. Demographic variables had a minimal impact on their perceptions. In contrast, teachers' perceptions often varied as a function of demographic variables, such as their grade level and specialty area (e.g., regular or special education). Several significant differences existed between what teachers perceived to be happening and what they would prefer regarding school psychologists' roles and student groups served. For example, regular education and special education elementary teachers and special education secondary teachers preferred to see school psychologists engage in a broader range of functions including counseling and direct intervention with students. These results have implications for advocating for role changes in school psychology. First, this knowledge might be used to inform school psychology training programs about the nature of practice and the need to include a balanced number of courses in testing, consultation, and intervention. Second, findings might be used by individual practitioners to assist them in understanding the perceptions and needs of teacher groups with whom they work and tailoring their practice to address those teachers' expectations. / Department of Educational Psychology
