Handbook of Multicultural School Psychology Summary

Handbook of Multicultural School Psychology: An Interdisciplinary Perspective by Emilia C. Lopez (Queens College - City University of New York, USA)

The second edition of the Handbook of Multicultural School Psychology continues the mission of its predecessor, offering a comprehensive, interdisciplinary view of the field of multicultural school psychology and addressing the needs of children and families from diverse cultural backgrounds. The revised organizational structure includes the following: History and Professional Issues; Consultation and Collaboration; Interventions Focused on Academic and Mental Health Issues; Data-based Decision Making; Systems-based Issues; Training and Research; and Future Perspectives. Nineteen of the volume's twenty-three chapters are completely new to this edition, while the rest have been effectively revised and updated.

Comprehensive-In seven sections, this book covers theoretical, research, and practical concerns in a wide range of areas that include multicultural and bilingual issues, second language acquisition, acculturation, parent collaboration, research, and systemic issues.

Chapter Structure-Chapter authors follow a uniform structure that includes theoretical and research issues and implications for practice. Recent practice and training guidelines including Blueprint for Training and Practice III (2006), NASP Model for Comprehensive and Integrated School Psychological Services (2010), and APA Multicultural Guidelines (2003) are covered.

Interdisciplinary Perspective-Contributing authors are from a wide range of related fields that include school psychology, special education, general education, early childhood education, educational psychology, clinical psychology, counseling, and mental health, thus exposing readers to theory and research from various approaches.

Changes-New to this edition is a section focusing on systemic issues such as overrepresentation of culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students in special education, prejudice, response to intervention (RTI) for CLD students and English Language Learners (ELL), and end-of-chapter discussion questions.

This book is ideal for graduate courses and seminars on multicultural school psychology. It is also a useful reference for researchers and practicing school psychologists and the libraries that serve them.

Handbook of Multicultural School Psychology Reviews

Handbook of Multicultural School Psychology, 2nd Edition is required reading for any school psychology practitioner and graduate student. As school psychologists serve more diverse learners, this text provides an important resource in developing increased cultural competence with topics ranging from assessment to intervention with students and families. The questions at the end of each chapter lead to greater self-reflection and discussions to influence the study and practice of school psychology from a multicultural lens.

-Erika Wood, Certified School Psychologist, New Town High School, Cedarmere Elementary, USA

Ideal for pre-service and in-service training on multicultural school psychology, this comprehensive and interdisciplinary book exposes readers to theory and research from various approaches. The new section on systemic issues, such as RtI for CLD and ELL students, is especially timely.

-Chieh Li, Associate Professor and Director of Clinical Training, School Psychology Program, Department of Applied Psychology, Northeastern University, USA

As North America continues its evolution as a multicultural and multilingual continent, as many segments of our society contend with injustice and bias, and as our school systems and communities face increasingly complex challenges in promoting the academic, socio-emotional, and multicultural competence of our youngest generations, there exists no better book in the field to guide school psychologists and related professionals in their day-to-day service delivery, consultation, research, and training. Simply put, this new edition of Handbook of Multicultural School Psychology is an integrative masterpiece of interdisciplinary applied science that should be on the shelf or e-reader of every school psychologist in America.

-Joseph Ponterotto, Professor, Counseling Psychology, Graduate School of Education, Fordham University, USA
