Disproportionality in School Discipline and Juvenile Justice Systems: The Past and Future Role of Psychological Consultation to Promote Equity
Sander, Janay B.; Bibbs, Deidra L.
Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation, v30 n4 p445-461 2020
Psychological consultation has potential to promote equity with regard to disproportionality in school discipline and juvenile justice systems. A summary of applicable models and examples of psychological consultation from the past 30 years highlights several resources. One key limitation of the current literature is the lack of outcomes and data-based resources to inform decision-makers. Disproportionate numbers of students of color in punitive and exclusionary settings have been documented for decades, and many authors have documented the inequity. The current literature clearly shows how psychological consultation as a field has a strong foundation and still needs more scholars and practitioners to contribute to the literature about effects and impact of specific programs, policies, and innovations to reduce disproportionality. Suggestions and key recommendations with promise to move the field in the direction of equity are included.
