School Counselors’ Support of Students During Reintegration

I am conducting a research study on the role of school counselors in supporting student reentry following hospitalization for suicidal thoughts or behaviors. With this study, I am trying to understand the extent to which formalized policies and procedures exist to support students' reentry after hospitalization and the degree to which school counselors are involved in this process. Your insights are valuable as they will help to inform the development of best practices and policies that could improve mental health support for students nationwide.

Your participation is voluntary. Please consider the information carefully. Feel free to ask questions before making your decision on whether to participate by contacting Dr. Patrick Cunningham at cunninghampd@appstate.edu.

Below is a link to a survey I am conducting for an article/book on why teachers (and counselors) are leaving the profession.  There are the standard reasons (such as lack of money and respect) but I am looking deeper and wider.  

Thanks for sharing this with friends/colleagues.  A randomly selected respondent will receive a $250 gift certificate.  And, to avoid bots, we are NOT posting this on Facebook, LinkedIn and other social media platforms.  Curated lists ....

Greetings! My name is Angie Ness. I am a licensed school counselor in Indiana and a doctoral candidate at the University of the Cumberlands, working towards earning a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. For partial fulfillment of the PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision, I am writing a dissertation on the predictive relationship of school counselor self-efficacy and school counselor professional identity, how school counselors rate their professional identity on a scale from educator to counselor, years of counseling experience, years of K-12 teaching experience, and caseload size. If you have a minimum of a master’s degree in school counseling, are fully licensed/certificated in the state where you are employed as a school counselor, work directly with students in a K-12 setting, and are interested in participating in this survey, please continue to read below.

The completion of the survey will take approximately 14 minutes and will be completely anonymous. No identifying information will be collected, and your participation is entirely voluntary. You may withdraw from participating in the study at any time. There will be no cost for you to participate.

You will be directed to a page containing prescreening questions, informed consent, and study information if you click the link below. If you meet the inclusion requirements and agree to the informed consent, you will be directed to the anonymous survey, including a demographic questionnaire, the School Counselor Self-Efficacy Scale (Bodenhorn & Skaggs, 2005), and the School Counselor Professional Identity Scale (Jurekovic, 2019). The School Counselor Self-Efficacy Scale is a 43-item Likert-type questionnaire measuring self-efficacy. The School Counselor Professional Identity Scale is a 49-item Likert-type questionnaire that measures the professional identity of school counselors. Please consider participating and providing much-needed information on the predictive relationship of school counselor professional identity, experience, and caseload size to school counselor self-efficacy.

Dear Middle School Teacher/Staff:

My name is Ricardo Poza, and I am a doctoral student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, College of Education. As part of my research, I am investigating factors that may motivate Massachusetts middle school students to consider or pursue specific careers. Specifically, I am exploring student interest in computer science (CS) and whether certain curricular elements support or encourage girls and boys to consider careers in CS.

Through this study, I hope to gain insights into what motivates students to explore CS careers, or what barriers may discourage them from doing so. Your participation will help us better understand how middle schools support students as they begin thinking about what they want to be when they grow up. 

If you choose to participate, you will be asked to complete a consent form and a brief questionnaire consisting of 19 questions. As a token of appreciation for your participation, you will receive a $5 Dunkin’ gift card. The questionnaire is intended for Computer Science (CS) and STEM teachers, school counselors, and administrators. 

All responses will remain confidential and will be used to establish a baseline of computer science offerings and career counseling at middle schools in Massachusetts.

Consent + Questionnaire Link: 

https://umassamherst.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6yTHwcESvqJTCCi

Please feel free to share the link with other middle school CS or STEM instructors in the state, as well as school counselors, and administrators.

Thank you for your consideration. 

Thank you,
Ricardo Poza
