First, we address the acute and chronic shortage of bilingual school psychologists in the United States, particularly in urban schools where student populations are increasingly diverse. Then we provide a review of strategies and efforts to recruit and retain bilingual graduate-level learners in one school psychology program in an urban university. Quantitative data regarding recruitment and retention efforts are discussed. We identify challenges and future directions to increase diversity in the field of school psychology. }, journal={SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY INTERNATIONAL}, author={Ding, Yi and Ridgard, Tamique and Cho, Su-Je and Wang, Jiayi}, year={2021}, month={Aug} }

Although evidence suggests that intervention in elementary school is critical to supporting struggling learners, and there are several research‐supported instructional practices to support students with math difficulties, the existing research is limited with regard to the impact of motivational strategies designed to improve students’ math skills. This study examined the effectiveness of specific motivational strategies used in the small‐group Accelerating Mathematics Performance through Practice Strategies (AMPPS‐SG) intervention program. A multiple baseline design was used with three instructional groups of second grade students to compare the relative effectiveness of three different conditions on students’ math computation skills. Condition 1 included all of the AMPPS‐SG instructional components. Condition 2 included all instructional procedures as well as goal‐setting, performance feedback, and reinforcement for performance. Condition 3 included all components used in Condition 2, as well as a group‐based reward contingency. Results showed that students’ performance during Condition 3 was significantly better than performance during Conditions 1 and 2.}, number={4}, journal={PSYCHOLOGY IN THE SCHOOLS}, author={Begeny, John C. and Codding, Robin S. and Wang, Jiayi and Hida, Rahma M. and Patterson, Sierra L. and Kessler, Sarah and Fields-Turner, Felicia and Ramos, Kimberly A.}, year={2020}, month={Apr}, pages={540–555} }

Therefore, to build upon efforts to assess and promote internationally representative scholarship, it is necessary to identify and know more about the discipline-specific journals within a field—including those published in different parts of the world and in different languages. The goals of this study were to (a) identify all peer-reviewed scholarly journals around the globe that are specifically devoted to publishing scholarship about school or educational psychology, and (b) obtain relevant information about those journals (e.g., information about the mission of each journal, article accessibility, language characteristics, etc.). One key finding indicated clear evidence of internationality in the discipline, but there are important limitations with respect to representation aspects of internationalization. Other findings showed that many journals offer free access to scholarly articles and that the vast majority of journals aim to publish scholarship that influences practice. All findings, implications, limitations, and future research directions are discussed in the context of internationalization within school and educational psychology, and are connected to discipline-relevant research, practice, training, collaboration, or advocacy. }, number={6}, journal={SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY INTERNATIONAL}, author={Begeny, John C. and Wang, Jiayi and Hida, Rahma M. and Oluokun, Helen O. and Jones, Renee A.}, year={2019}, month={Dec}, pages={547–580} }

The present study is the first known to examine this with journals devoted to school and educational psychology. After systematically identifying all peer-reviewed scholarly journals around the globe that are specifically devoted to school or educational psychology ( N = 45), the goals of this study were to (a) report key characteristics about each journal’s editorial board, and (b) examine the extent to which geographic affiliation (country where one is employed) is consistent among a journal’s editorial board members and recent authors. One key finding revealed that editorial boards of the discipline’s journals represent individuals from all global regions, but many global regions (e.g. Africa, Eastern Europe, Latin America) are underrepresented. Another finding showed that the vast majority of journals evidence strong similarities in geographic affiliation between editorial board members and authors. Findings, implications, limitations, and future research directions are discussed in the context of internationalization. }, number={2}, journal={SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY INTERNATIONAL}, author={Wang, Jiayi and Begeny, John C. and Hida, Rahma M. and Oluokun, Helen O.}, year={2020}, month={Apr}, pages={110–136} }

This paper discusses the shortage of school psychologists at national and local levels in the United States and then addresses the acute shortage of bilingual school psychologists in culturally and linguistically diverse urban schools. The article provides a review of relevant research and practice for bilingual school psychologists through the perspective of Fordham University's curriculum, competencies, fieldwork, and internship. The authors identify challenges and potential opportunities to enhance culturally and linguistically responsive training of school psychologists. Applications for global school psychology practice are discussed, and limitations are addressed. }, number={3}, journal={SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY INTERNATIONAL}, author={Ding, Yi and Cho, Su-Je and Wang, Jiayi and Yu, Qiong}, year={2019}, month={Jun}, pages={235–250} }

With the aim of addressing this gap in the literature and increasing empirical data related to internationalization in school and educational psychology, the present study gathered data about the publication outlets among international scholars in the field since 2000. Several findings are reported, such as the number of books, chapters, and journal articles published by participants, as well as the names of the journals that participants most frequently published in—within and across global regions. One key finding from the study was that school and educational psychology scholars around the globe frequently publish in discipline‐specific journals, but generally publish in a wide range of journals that focus on specific topics (e.g., behavior, child development). Additionally, it was found that the large majority of authors from our study published their studies in English.}, number={8}, journal={PSYCHOLOGY IN THE SCHOOLS}, author={Kim, Eui Kyung and Begeny, John C. and Hida, Rahma and Wang, Jiayi and Jones, Renee and Oluokun, Helen}, year={2018}, month={Sep}, pages={955–968} }
