Furthermore, this article is intended for researchers and practitioners interested in evaluating their practice. To meet these objectives, we address quality criteria for quantitative (validity) and qualitative (trustworthiness). From there, we review also multiple schemes for quality (legitimation) criteria in mixed methods and propose a synergistic participatory approach that includes legitimation criteria for the integration of qualitative and quantitative work throughout the research process, from conceptualization to dissemination. Our view of integration also applies to the application of findings, which is an idea aligned with participatory processes inherent in our approach to consultation practice. Finally, we discuss and illustrate the application of legitimation criteria to consultation research and evaluation.","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10474412.2021.1887743","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49176912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The longevity of the journal, having recently celebrated its 30 year of publication, reflects the historical and enduring importance of consultation practice and research across a variety of contexts and settings. Previous editors Howard Margolis, Joseph Zins, Emilia Lopez, Stephen Truscott, and David Shriberg individually and collectively entrenched JEPC as the primary interdisciplinary publication outlet for consultation research. JEPC was established in 1990, amidst growing recognition that consultation and collaboration amongst educators could help support positive educational outcomes for all students, including students with and without disabilities (Truscott et al., 2015). For the past 30-plus years the journal’s contributing authors, many of whom are giants in consultation research, have tackled a breadth and depth of topics related to educational and psychological consultation ultimately highlighting the value of consultative service delivery as an indirect support for clients, most often students in schools. My connection to JEPC developed when I was a school psychology doctoral student at the University of Maryland. In conjunction with the intensive school consultation training that I received at that time under the instruction and supervision of Dr. Sylvia Rosenfield, the journal’s content shaped my conceptual understanding of consultation and my paradigm for school psychology practice. Presently, as a graduate educator, the content informs my training of future school consultants. I published my first peer-reviewed publication in JEPC, and I have served as an Ad Hoc reviewer, Editorial Board member, special issue Guest Editor, and Associate Editor for the journal. In April of 2019 I applied to be JEPC Editor, and I submitted a vision statement highlighting my perspectives on the journal’s history, present, and future. However, much in the world has changed since that time, making the context for beginning this Editorship in January of 2021 different than I could have ever expected.","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10474412.2020.1857108","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43750355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Constructivism is foundational in ethnographic traditions as well and it focuses on understanding socially constructed meaning-making in cultural groups. Given the importance of constructivism in both traditions there is a natural alignment in the use of ethnography to study CCC. This paper illustrates unique contributions ethnography can make to explain and describe the application of CCC, from the social process of problem conceptualization to broadening our understanding of how underserved parents can be engaged as successful consultees. Additionally, it examines how ethnography can advance our theoretical knowledge of the CCC process. The text of four published studies that used ethnography to study CCC were scrutinized. Every article articulated how the ethnographic method was used to pose a research question, present a basis for the research strategy, and examine the studies’ findings.","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10474412.2020.1866582","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44332605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scope of such RP initiatives can remain ambiguous to school leaders. Given the need for greater clarity about RP initiatives, the current study sought to identify the varying components of RP implementation for building infrastructure, strengthening staff and student capacity, and enacting multi-tiered supports. The current qualitative study draws on interview data with 18 school-based RP practitioners and principals from a large urban district in the Northeast. We used grounded theory to analyze the semi-structured interviews. Qualitative coding and analysis resulted in the development of 12 indicators of RP implementation. The 12 indicators offer a novel, practice-based guide for system-level consultation with a comprehensive approach to schoolwide buy-in, staff training, discipline policy reform, and equity and social justice.","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2020-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10474412.2020.1824788","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48891684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a constructivist grounded theory approach, this study investigated the use of the Consultation Peer Feedback Process (CPFP) as a tool for developing skills and perspectives among consultants. This study analyzed the types of feedback requested by consultants-in-training (CITs) and their peer-identified strengths and feedback. A coding lexicon and themes were identified to understand the needs of CITs when requesting and receiving feedback. This led to a constructivist grounded theory that describes how CITs learn to consult with cases in CLD schools. Detailed analyses of 42 CPFP Summaries indicated that the strength-based nature of the CPFP supported CITs in areas where they requested support, provided encouragement and specific feedback, and expanded CITs’ exposure to cases and issues beyond their immediate setting and perspectives.

Although coaching is effective in rigorous research studies, scholars question the effective translation of coaching in authentic schools.
