Learner Objectives
This session will help participants…
- describe the prevalence of suicidal ideation among youth.
- assess the impact of school transitions on student suicidal ideation.
- identify how supporting a student's transition to their next school fits into the comprehensive role of a school psychologist.
Description
Do school-based transitions impact student suicidal ideation? We will detail the results of a mixed studies systematic narrative literature review analyzing the impact of school-based transitions on student suicidal ideation to inform the future practice of school psychologists. Researchers will discover a gap in the existing literature and practitioners will recognize the need to support students as they transition schools.
