CONSTRUCTION AND APPLICATION OF INSTRUMENT FOR MEASUREMENT OF THE ATTITUDE TOWARD SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGISTS
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2012, Vol 39, Issue 1
Abstract
This research has an aim to determine the status of the school psychologists in the primary schools in Republic of Macedonia, confirmed through the explorations of the attitude of the teachers and other expert personnel regarding the school psychologist. For the need of this research, an instrument for measurement of the attitude toward the school psychologist (SSP) is constructed. The main conclusions drawn from the field work, statistical evaluations and analysis are that a large percent of the subjects (73%) have negative attitude toward the school psychologists and there is a lack of basic information regarding their status, role and tasks. These results are very significant because it is more than necessary to reveal and maybe to change some essential requirements about the working tasks, the demands, the duties and engagements of the school psychologists.
