Participants ranged in age from 24 to 69 years (M = 42.82, SD = 9.96). Participants identified as female (81.5%), male (14.1%) or unreported (4.4%,). Participants’ racial and ethnic backgrounds were: White (79.3%), African American or Black (5.6%), Multiracial (5.2%), Latino/Hispanic/Spanish (4.8%), American Indian/Alaskan Native (0.4%), Other (0.4%), or unreported (4.4%). Participants from 14 states completed an online survey, which included demographics questions and the TIPS-SCP. After removing the poorly performing items, partial credit model estimates explained 58.63% of the variance in participant responses. We found psychometric evidence to support its ability to capture trauma informed practices in schools and school counseling programs.Significance StatementThe TIPS-SCP is a brief instrument to provide school counselors with a self-assessment of their trauma informed practices. The TIPS-SCP can aid school counselors in making data-informed decisions about immediate and future incorporations of integrating trauma informed practices into their schools and school counseling programs.Keyword: trauma-informed practicestrauma-informed schoolsschool counselorsitem response theoryinstrument development Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis research was funded by The University of Alabama RGC Small Grant 2019 Area B.Notes on contributorsHeather J.
