讨 论
总的来说,本研究的结果显示,与先前的一些关于生命循环和生涯发展的传统研究相比较而言,研究结果存在着部分一致性。在当前的研究中,心理咨询教师对职业生涯没有给出概念化的阶段划分。调查对象将其他心理咨询教师作为自己专业发展过程中最显著的影响因素。他们将一个正式的导师当做自己早期职业生涯中最有价值的支持资源,尽管只有少数的人能够建立起一种正式的指导关系。本研究的调查对象认为,持续性的发展机遇以及与“正常”儿童在工作上的交流对自己的专业发展起到了最显著的附加影响。大体上来说,本研究中的心理咨询教师并没有反映出一些发展心理学著作当中指出的有关于职业发展阶段脱离或警示在程度方面的新变化。最后,这些接受调查的心理咨询教师报告自己在职业生涯发展当中,在容忍力,同理心,自知力以及自信心方面有所提高,认为自己的专业知识和技能有所增长,对于成为团体中的一份子显示出很大的兴趣,对于自己的个人生活和职业生涯的发展更加能够得到区分。

Career Development of School Psychologists

DISCUSSION
Overall, the results of this study revealed some consistencies as well as some contrasts with prior research in the life-cycle and career-development traditions. The school psychologists in the current study did not conceptualize their careers in stages. Respondents identified other school psychologists as the most significant influence on their professional development. They cited a formal mentor as potentially the most valuable source of support early in their careers, although few were involved in a formal mentoring relationship. The study respondents identified continuing development opportunities and work with “normal” children as among the most significant additional influences on their professional growth. By and large, the school psychologists in this study did not reflect the degree of professional disengagement or caution toward change noted in the developmental psychology literature. Finally, these school psychologists reported increased tolerance, empathy, self-knowledge and self-confidence, perceived increase in professional knowledge and skills, greater interest in being part of a team, and increased separation of their personal and professional lives over the course of their professional careers.
