Professional Role Perceptions of School Social Workers, Psychologists, and Counselors
Agresta, Jacqueline
Children & Schools, v26 n3 p151-163 2004
School social workers, school psychologists, and school counselors were surveyed. They reported the actual proportion of their professional time that they devoted and would ideally dedicate to each of 21 professional roles. They rated the appropriateness of each role for members of the three professions and indicated how often they felt competitive toward members of the other two professions. Results showed that school social workers and school counselors spent substantial time on counseling and that school psychologists spent more time doing psychometric testing and report writing. All three groups wanted to do more counseling. Respondents from the three groups indicated that they seldom felt competitive toward members of the other groups.
