The Handbook of Research in School Consultation provides the field of school-based consultation with a comprehensive examination of research perspectives, methodologies, models of practice, and future research directions. The last decade has seen several critical developments in the study of school consultation, which provides structure and process for the adoption, implementation, and sustainability of systems and practices that support children’s learning and development. This preeminent collection brings together leading experts in the field to offer both producers and consumers of school consultation an invaluable snapshot of the current boundaries and rapidly growing content of the discipline.
Thoroughly revised and expanded, the third edition broadens and deepens methodological and statistical foundations, details research on the science of consultee and organizational change, and specifies cultural, social, and linguistic aspects of school consultation research. New chapters on research design, teleconsultation, program and process evaluation, treatment integrity, social justice, transnational perspectives, and more will yield firmer competence and implementation of agreed-upon strategies. An ideal resource for researchers, trainers, and professionals in school psychology, school counseling, school social work, special education, and others, this handbook effectively keeps pace with the ever-evolving world of school consultation.
“The third edition of the Handbook of Research in School Consultation is an invaluable resource for school practitioners, trainers, and researchers. Edited by four of the leading researchers in consultation, the chapters provide critical insights into the process of consulting in educational settings. Building on the empirical research underlying effective consultation practices and the role that consultation can play in improving teaching and learning, the authors cover the breadth of the field, providing strategies that are applicable to both the diversity of school populations and the wide range of school contexts.”
—Frank Worrell, Distinguished Professor and Director of School Psychology Program at University of California, Berkley, USA, and Former President of the American Psychological Association
“The Handbook of Research in School Consultation, Third Edition, offers a rigorous foundation for advancing school consultation science and practice. This edition reflects the remarkable growth in socially responsive research that not only deepens our understanding of consultation processes and outcomes but also introduces emerging topics and innovative methodologies. The integrative and empirically grounded chapters highlight the vital role of consultation in addressing complex challenges faced by students, educators, and schools in diverse educational settings. This volume is an essential reference for scholars and professionals seeking to understand and apply the science behind effective school consultation practices.”
—Chryse (Sissy) Hatzichristou, Professor of School Psychology at National and Kapodistian University of Athens, Greece
“The third edition of the Handbook of Research in School Consultation is an essential addition to the consultation literature. As evidence-based practitioners, we want to check our consultation practices against the latest research, and this book makes that work so much easier. Even more than in previous editions, this one confirms, based on research, how consultation makes a significant contribution to the many challenges that impact learning and behavior among diverse populations.”
