Would you please forward the following email to practicing school counselors? I have attached the IRB approval. Thank you for your help in advancing research on trauma-informed practice.
SCHOOL COUNSELOR SURVEY FOR TRAUMA-INFORMED PRACTICE
Dear School Counselor:
We invite you to participate in a research study being conducted by investigators from The University of Iowa. The purpose of the study is to investigate school counselor level of training, work experience and attitudes related to trauma-informed practices in their school.
If you agree to participate, we would like you to complete a short online survey. You will be asked 16 questions about your demographics and 45 questions about your beliefs about student behaviors and your schoolâs responses to them. You are free to skip any questions that you prefer not to answer. It will take approximately 15 minutes.
We will not collect your name or any identifying information about you. It will not be possible to link you to your responses on the survey.
Taking part in this research study is completely voluntary. If you do not wish to participate in this study, simply disregard this email. However, please consider forwarding the email to other practicing school counselors.
