The shift to online platforms, accelerated by the challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic, has transformed counseling and guidance systems. Consequently, developing robust online support systems has become imperative for extending guidance to all students. This article introduces the design, development, and evaluation of “My Future Career,” a multidimensional recommendation system (RS) crafted to aid students in navigating university and academic major selection decisions. The system relies on three key student‐driven parameters: central university entrance exam scores, rankings, and occupational personality types, utilizing cosine similarity and normalized distance to align user and item profiles. Following the system's completion, an assessment was conducted using data from real users, revealing an impressive accuracy (hit rate 100%, precision 88%) in recommendations following the inclusion of contextual post‐filtering features. The findings not only highlight the system's effectiveness but also underscore the positive user experience, as students express contentment with its ease of use and practical utility. The results emphasize the endorsement of expert's regarding the system's consistency (52%), relevance (96%), and acceptance (96%) in providing recommendations.","PeriodicalId":48182,"journal":{"name":"Psychology in the Schools","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141505811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study focused on the experiences of secondary school counselors in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A concurrent triangulation mixed methods design was used for getting a complete understanding of ethical decision‐making approaches of school counseling. Forty participants were involved in the quantitative part of the study, while six participated in the qualitative part of the study. For the quantitative aspect, a survey was utilized, and the data were analyzed using tables, frequencies, and percentages. The result showed that participants used variety of approaches to deal with ethical challenges for school counseling, including open discussion, personal sense of morality, and respecting code of students' discipline. However, the least percentage (22.5%, n = 9) has observed for using of code of ethics in counseling profession. In the qualitative part, semi‐structured in‐depth interviews were used to explore the experiences of ethical decision‐making and the meaning of those experiences for secondary school counselors currently practicing at Addis Ababa city. Qualitative data were analyzed by using thematic analysis technique. The major ethical decision‐making approaches identified in school counseling were (a) building a good relationship and guaranteed confidentiality, (b) referral linkage, (c) training for students and collaboration, and (d) life experience and personal sense of morality. The most common meanings attributed to dealing with ethical challenges in school were the urge to share information with to get personal relief, feeling of stress, and gain personal satisfaction from acts of compassion. Implications are forwarded to support school counselors in taking an action for professional development and to promote quality of school counseling practices.","PeriodicalId":48182,"journal":{"name":"Psychology in the Schools","volume":"83 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141505932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study explores keys to success and challenges in engaging families to the design and implementation of School Wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (SWPBIS). In a two‐step systematic assessment, consisting of an online survey (n = 27 participants) and five focus group interviews with administrators and members of SWPBIS leadership teams in schools for primary education (n = 15 participants), we found that all 27 participating schools considered partnerships and communication with parents important. However, most participating schools did not have a policy or strategic planning for engaging families, nor did they systematically evaluate their actions. Schools used one‐way approaches of communicating with parents and found it hard to adapt their communication to a diverse population of new parents and parents already familiar with SWPBIS. Schools did not communicate about what was achieved by implementing SWPBIS in their school. Including families in the SWPBIS leadership team was often considered challenging. Input from families on SWPBIS was not collected, nor did schools gather information about family's needs, (cultural) backgrounds to develop strategies for engaging families. Further research on actual school practices in engaging families is recommended.","PeriodicalId":48182,"journal":{"name":"Psychology in the Schools","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141505931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to use reflexive thematic analysis to understand the knowledge, management, and education of concussion among Irish postprimary educators. A cross‐sectional study that involved semistructured interviews with 18 secondary school teachers was conducted. Interviews were recorded and transcribed in preparation for a reflexive thematic analysis process according to research conducted by Braun and Clarke. A total of 664 data items were coded which led to the development of 5 themes (i.e., teacher's background experience, consequences of concussion, concussion in school, educating educators, and existing standards) and 22 subthemes. The implementation of concussion education initiatives for improving student safety, injury management, and recovery through mandatory teacher‐continued professional development should be explored. Teachers' knowledge of concussion is influenced by personal experiences, with safer attitudes observed in those who have witnessed or experienced concussions. The role of the Year Head in concussion management should be explored with a focus on communication pathways and dissemination of materials. Protocols for medical emergencies and academic adjustments for concussed students should be made readily available to secondary school teachers.","PeriodicalId":48182,"journal":{"name":"Psychology in the Schools","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141529378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Super Skills for Life (SSL) is a transdiagnostic preventive program designed based on the cognitive‐behavioral therapy concept to address emotional problems among children. This study examined the effectiveness of the M‐SSL program in reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms as well as other psychological issues such as social competency, worries, cognitive and emotional regulation in a sample of Malaysian children between the ages of 10 and 12. A quasi‐experimental preintervention and postintervention research design was conducted. A total of 165 primary school children (M = 10.9, SD = 0.72) were recruited with 88 of them randomly assigned to the intervention group. All of them were asked to complete a questionnaire consisting of demographic data, the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale Revised, Spencer Children's Anxiety Scale, Strength and Difficulties Questionnaires, Social Skills Questionnaires and Cognitive Emotional Regulation Questionnaires. Children in the M‐SSL group significantly reported lower levels of depressive scores during follow‐up assessment compared to the children in the control group. They also showed significant improvement in their depressive subscale scores, social worries scores, and the way they perceived an event as compared to the control group. These findings provide initial support for the effects of M‐SSL, suggesting that it is a valuable resource for the prevention of depressive symptoms and for improving social worries among children.","PeriodicalId":48182,"journal":{"name":"Psychology in the Schools","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141529377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
