A request from Emily Crawford, Doctoral Candidate in School Psychology, University of Southern Maine: Hello, Maine Association of School Psychologists members. Assessment is a critical part of the work of school psychologists. You are invited to participate in a survey on the topic of preschool assessment. All practicing school psychologists are invited to participate regardless of involvement in preschool assessment. The survey is being conducted by Emily Crawford, a school psychology doctoral candidate at the University of Southern Maine. Specifically, the survey seeks to collect information to understand the current state of training and overall preparedness of school psychologists to evaluate preschool aged students. This survey will take approximately 8-10 minutes to complete. Upon completion of the survey, you can choose to be entered to win one of five available $20 Amazon gift cards. Information entered into this raffle will not be connected to any survey responses to maintain confidentiality. Please click here to access the survey. Thank you for your time and consideration. A request from Jessica Arocho, School Psychology Graduate Student, Western Carolina University: The purpose of this research and survey is to collect data on school psychologists' view of themselves as leaders, their view of how others perceive them to be leaders, and the traits necessary to be effective leaders. Additionally, this research hopes to identify the barriers and supporting factors that impact leadership involvement as a school psychologist. Finally, the field of school psychology lacks research on the relationship between leadership and school psychologists and therefore, this research hopes to provide more insight into that relationship. This survey is completely anonymous and poses no foreseeable risk for your members. Click here to access the anonymous survey. Thank you! A request from Ryan Sunda, School Psychology Doctoral Student, University of Massachusetts Boston: I am seeking current K-12, school-based, school psychologists to complete a research survey entitled, School Psychologists’ Roles in Return to Classroom Plans Following Concussions. The survey is a part of an ongoing study where I am hoping to gather information regarding the field’s feelings of preparedness in supporting students with concussions and their involvement in return to learning plans in the previous school year. The survey will take participants no longer than 10 minutes to complete, is completely anonymous, and no identifying information will be collected. I am hoping you will consider forwarding the following recruitment email to current school psychologists who may be interested in completing the survey. It requests their voluntary participation. In appreciation of participation, we are offering a 1 in 25 chance to win a $10 Amazon gift card. A link to a Google Form that can be completed for a chance to with the Amazon gift card will be given upon completion of the survey; please note, this compensation form will ask for your name and email, but they will not be linked to your Qualtrics survey responses. If you have questions, please contact me, Ryan Sunda, via email (ryan.sunda001@umb.edu). |
