Eschenbrenner, Charlotte Risby

Abstract Details

2015, Doctor of Philosophy, Ohio State University, EDU Physical Activity and Educational Services.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether practice setting has an influence on several aspects of school psychologists’ professional lives including job satisfaction, roles, and challenges. The survey created was modeled on the Job Satisfaction Scale (Warr, Cook, & Wall, 1979), the NASP 5-year survey (Curtis, Castillo, & Gelley, 2012), and Graves, Proctor and Aston’s (2014) survey of urban practitioners. Results indicated that practice setting has a significant relationship with aspects of job satisfaction, challenges, and roles performed. Implications of these results are discussed and suggestions for future research are outlined.
