Abstract

[Currently, within the field of school psychology, a shift in service delivery models is occurring. Whereas school psychology had been dominated by a refer-test-report (and place) delivery model (Reschly & Yssedyke, 2002), recent legislation has facilitated a change in service delivery to include a response to intervention (RtI) model (Brown-Chidsey & Steege, 2005). Practicing within this service delivery model both allows and requires school psychologists to expand their range of skills and the services they offer (Oakland & Cunningham, 1999), specifically increasing their use of nontraditional assessment measures. This need to increase school psychologists’ competencies in nontraditional assessment measures within a problem-solving, outcome-driven model provides the context for this chapter.]
