School Psychology in the Czech Republic: Development, Status and Practice
Kavenská, Veronika; Smékalová, Eleonora; Šmahaj, Jan
School Psychology International, v34 n5 p556-565 Oct 2013
This intensive exploratory research maps the working conditions of school psychologists in the Czech Republic. An electronic questionnaire consisting of 71 questions (58 quantitative, 13 qualitative) from nine fields was used as a research tool. The respondent sample ("N"?=?63; 53 females, 10 males) indicate that they are largely job-satisfied and there is significant statistical relationship between their job satisfaction and their acceptance by both management and teaching staff. Compared to prior years, these school psychologists appear more certain of their work identity.
