Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

School psychology requires far more than administering tests.

Every referral presents a developing child whose learning, behavior, language, culture, health, educational history, family circumstances, strengths, and needs must be understood before responsible conclusions can be made.

The Complete School Psychology Guide is an extensive learning and practice resource for graduate students, interns, early-career professionals, practicing school psychologists, and members of multidisciplinary educational teams.

Beginning with the history and evolution of the profession, this guide takes readers through the complete school psychology process, including:

- Comprehensive psychoeducational evaluation- Assessment selection, administration, and score interpretation- Psychometrics explained in accessible language- Special education law, Section 504, ethics, and eligibility- Bilingual and culturally responsive evaluation- Autism, learning disabilities, ADHD, trauma, and giftedness- Report writing and meaningful recommendations- IEP meetings, family communication, and professional disagreement- Early intervention, MTSS, and progress monitoring- Professional judgment, technology, artificial intelligence, and the realities of practice

Research and professional principles are connected to composite cases, practical checklists, decision frameworks, reflection questions, report-writing tools, evaluation safeguards, and field-based guidance.

Written from the combined perspectives of an experienced New York City school psychologist and an organizational psychology practitioner, this book helps readers move from data to meaning, from findings to useful support, and from procedural compliance to responsible professional practice.

Because every score represents a student, every report shapes expectations, and every decision can influence a future.

Always See the Child Behind the Data.
