|a The Response to Intervention model (Rtl) has become a reality in the state of Florida and has been mandated as an answer to the state's improvement plan and the Race to the Top initiative (2011). Historically, school psychologists have focused on individual psycho-educational assessment rather than on diagnostic prescriptive assessment and effective evidence-based interventions, as required by Rtl. Therefore, there appears to be sufficient change within the profession and a lack of role clarity within the ranks of school psychologists. This study examined the perceptions of 273 school psychologists representing 27 counties in Florida, regarding their role clarity, job satisfaction, and attitudes toward Rtl. The study also examined whether participants differed in those variables based on their county of employment. Three instruments were utilized in this correlational study, the Role Conflict and Ambiguity Scale, the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire Short Form (m-MSQ), and the Attitudes toward Rtf. Pearson product moment cotTelations and multiple regression analyses were used to examine the relationships among the variables of interest. Results indicated that there were significant positive relationships among role clarity,job satisfaction, and attitudes toward Rti among school psychologists. In addition, the attitudes of school psychologists toward Rti, their role clarity, and job satisfaction were significantly higher in the Northern counties than in the Southeast; participants in the Central and Southwest counties obtained higher scores than those in the Southeast in job satisfaction; and participants in the Northern counties had more role clarity than those in the Central and Southwest counties. A stepwise regression analysis identified that role clarity accounted by itself for about 64 percent of the variance (R2 = .668) in job satisfaction. |
