Preliminary pilot study of current practices and preferences of school psychologists in Canada (Master's thesis, University of Calgary, Calgary, Canada). Retrieved from https://prism.ucalgary.ca.http://hdl.handle.net/1880/115346The current descriptive preliminary/pilot study examined the roles, practices, challenges, and aspirations of practicing school psychologists within Canada, building from previous research done by Jordan et al. (2009). Online self-report measures were utilized with a small sample of 21 respondents who represented five Canadian provinces and the Northwest Territories. The tentative results indicate that practicing school psychologists report similar challenges to previous research, with most feeling understaffed, overworked, and limited in their roles and functions. These findings have possible implications for the field of school psychology, as well as foundations for future research post-pandemic.University of Calgary graduate students retain copyright ownership and moral rights for their thesis.
