Abstract

ABSTRACT In the field of Educational Psychology, consultation is both a core competency to be achieved by the end of pre-service training and a practice that infuses all aspects of service delivery post-qualification. The present study aimed to explore the perspectives of university educators on preparing trainee educational psychologists to consult, especially following significant systemic change at social-political and professional standard levels. A qualitative exploratory design was chosen to inform semi-structured interviews with 14 participants from 16 universities in the United Kingdom providing post-graduate training. These interviews were analyzed thematically, with 10 over-arching themes identified. Themes are discussed across three aspects: (i) systemic factors, (ii) facilitators and barriers in consultation training in the current UK context and (iii) curriculum content and pedagogic methods used in consultation training at pre-service level. Strengths, limitations, and implications for applied practice and future research are discussed.

英国教育心理咨询师职前培训的定性回顾

摘要在教育心理学领域，咨询既是职前培训结束后要达到的核心能力，也是一种融入服务提供岗位资格各个方面的实践。本研究旨在探讨大学教育工作者对培养实习教育心理学家进行咨询的看法，特别是在社会政治和职业标准发生重大系统性变化之后。选择了一种定性探索性设计，对来自英国16所大学的14名提供研究生培训的参与者进行半结构化访谈。对这些访谈进行了主题分析，确定了10个主要主题。讨论的主题涉及三个方面：（i）系统因素，（ii）当前英国背景下咨询培训的促进者和障碍，以及（iii）职前咨询培训中使用的课程内容和教学方法。讨论了应用实践和未来研究的优势、局限性和意义。

Consultation is broadly defined as a process that facilitates problem solving for individuals, groups, and organizations. JEPC publishes articles and special thematic issues that describe formal research, evaluate practice, examine the program implementation process, review relevant literature, investigate systems change, discuss salient issues, and carefully document the translation of theory into practice.
