Understanding Immigrants, Schooling, and School Psychology: Contemporary Science and Practice
Frisby, Craig L.; Jimerson, Shane R.
School Psychology Quarterly, v31 n2 p141-148 Jun 2016
Immigration into the United States is a particularly salient topic of current contemporary educational, social, and political discussions. The school-related needs of immigrant children and youth can be well served by rigorous research and effective school psychology preservice training and preparation. This overview highlights key definitions, demographic statistics, and current resources related to immigration in U.S. society. This special topic section on understanding immigrants, schooling, and school psychology features articles relevant to this important topic. We conclude with a call for this effort to serve as a springboard for future discussions, scholarship, and school psychology training in preparing practitioners for serving children who are immigrants.
