    Hello Colleague,
    You have been invited to participate in a research study on the topic of cognitive processes related to learning and behavior. This survey is part of a doctoral dissertation.  It will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. Upon completing the survey, you will have the option to enter into a raffle for the chance to win a $20 Amazon gift card. Your responses will be confidential. Your participation in this study is completely voluntary; you may refuse to participate or terminate your participation at any time without penalty. In addition, you have the right skip any questions you do not want to answer. This is an anonymous study; therefore, you will not be required to provide us with your name or other identifying personal information.


    Unfortunately, only practicing school psychologists and school psychology interns may participate in this research. This online survey is posted on Survey Monkey, which is a website specifically designed for surveys and questionnaires. The link to the survey is:

    RISPA has always advocated for the recognition of the NCSP credential in RI schools. During a fall conference survey conducted in 2006, psychologists from only 3 districts reported being compensated in any way for having their NCSP.


    As the financial landscape of education in our state has waned, it has become increasingly more difficult to advocate for the NCSP. Have times changed at all in the past 8 years? RISPA is interested in hearing any related feedback...positive or negative on efforts to have the NCSP recognized in your school district.

    I would like to pose a question.


    What does ethics mean to you and how does it guide your everyday interactions?
