MASP has been contacted by the following individuals or groups with requests for your participation in various IRB-approved research projects. We encourage your participation in this important work!
My name is Zhizhou He. I am a school psychology doctoral student at University of Kansas. I am conducting a research project on school psychologists’ decision-making process through the evaluation process. From Dr. Kathrin Maki, School of Special Education, School Psychology, and Early Childhood Studies: You are invited to participate in a research study about the perspectives and knowledge that school psychologists have pertaining to the intervention and assessment of academic skills. This study poses questions related to the intervention and assessment of academic skills, tiered supports for academic skills, and school psychologists' perspectives on academic interventions depending on targeted needs. This data will inform future training programs and create a better understanding of the involvement of school psychologists in academic skill development. The study should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Every 20th participant will receive a $20 gift card. The study has been approved by the University of Florida Institutional Review Board Protocol #IRB202300100. |
A request from Catherine Falk, doctoral student in school psychology at the University of South Dakota: I am currently engaged in research and conducting a study on how school psychologists support their schools, students, and families. The study aims to gain a comprehensive understanding of how school psychologists use their expertise to support individuals, groups, and causes at various levels of practice. I am hoping the results of this student will inform university faculty, practitioners, and policymakers about advocacy efforts by school psychologists to improve upon this critical competency within the field. This survey is open to practicing school psychologists, school psychology faculty, retired school psychologists, and graduate students in school psychology, and should take about ten minutes to complete.
