Abstract

School counselors are one of the people who take responsibility for intervening in the school environment with students who have conduct problems. Students who show conduct problems are one of the most referred groups to the school counseling service. Students who display aggression, substance use, abuse, bullying, and self-harming tendencies are more likely to experience various problems such as peer relations, school achievement, delinquency, etc. They should be intervened early without experiencing negative consequences such as legal problems. Thus, the purpose of this study is to examine the professional experience of school counselors while working with conduct-problemed students. This study was designed according to the qualitative approach. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 15 school counselors who work at high school level in Usak. Research participants were selected with maximum variation sampling. As a result of the analysis of qualitative data, common conduct problems, causes of conduct problems, approaches, and techniques used, cooperation and needs have emerged.

OKUL PSİKOLOJİK DANIŞMANLARININ DAVRANIM SORUNLARI GÖSTEREN LİSE ÖĞRENCİLERİYLE ÇALIŞMA DENEYİMLERİ

Abstract

Davranım sorunları gösteren öğrencilere okul ortamında müdahale edilmesinde sorumluluk alan kişilerin başında okul psikolojik danışmanları gelmektedir. Bu öğrenciler, okul psikolojik danışma ve rehberlik servisine en fazla gelen/yönlendirilen grupların başında gelmektedir. Saldırganlık, madde kullanımı, istismar, zorbalık, kendine zarar verme eğilimleri olan öğrencilerin bireysel sorunları akran ilişkileri, akademik başarı, suça sürüklenme gibi farklı alanlarda çeşitli sorunlara da neden olmaktadır. Olumsuz, hayati ya da adli sorunlar yaşanmadan bu öğrencilere erken müdahalede bulunulması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı okul psikolojik danışmanlarının davranım sorunları gösteren öğrencilerle çalışma deneyimlerini çok yönlü incelemektir. Bu araştırma nitel araştırma yaklaşımına göre tasarlanmıştır. Uşak ilindeki liselerde çalışan okul psikolojik danışmanlarından maksimum çeşitlilik örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılan 15 okul psikolojik danışmanı ile nitel görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Nitel verilerin analizi sonucunda yaygın davranım sorunları, davranım sorunlarının nedenleri, kullanılan yaklaşım ve teknikler, iş birliği ve ihtiyaçlar ortaya çıkmıştır.
