Abstract

This report describes the practice analysis study of newly certified school psychologists. This project was conducted in cooperation with the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). The report documents the methods used to define the performance domain of school psychologists, describes the types of statistical analyses conducted, reports the results of these analyses, and discusses the implications of these results for test development. The examination that results from this study will be used by NASP and many states to license and/or certify school psychologists.
