Abstract

Original Articles I am pleased to bring you 10 high-quality, interesting, original articles on rich and varied topics. Our authors come from diverse backgrounds and report on issues of global relevance to school psychology and counselling. Five articles relate to school counsellors and/or counsellor training: Donald and colleagues examined worry and self-efficacy, Firat reported on the counsellor’s role in working with students with learning disabilities, Zukovic and Slijepčević investigated the reasons younger children present for counselling, Eyo explored the use of digital technologies in counsellor education, and Howard et al presented a timely piece on trauma aware practices. One article sheds light on teachers’ knowledge: Ginsburg and colleagues investigated the under researched area of teacher awareness of anxiety and specifically their use of anxiety reduction strategies. The three remaining original articles relate to students: Azadianbojnordi et al. examined academic hope in students applying for university, Choi and others investigated the role of motivation in the relationship between perfectionism and academic burnout, and Varsamis and colleagues used path modelling to reveal psychosocial predictors of bullying victimisation. Thank you to our peer reviewers who have volunteered their time to ensure the research is of a high standard and has broad readership appeal. Happy reading and take care.
