WHAT DO TEACHERS EXPECT FROM A SCHOOL PSY CHOLOGIST

A sample of 331 teachers of the ''Grundschule'', ''Hauptschule'' and t he ''Gymnasium'' answered a questionnaire about different aspects of s chool psychology. The results demonstrate that the teachers prefer psy chological working as a reactive working primary with pupils and paren ts. Counseling concerned to teaching and teachers and school administr ation are judged more negatively than working with pupils and parents. Concerning this matter there is no difference between the three schoo l types. Female teachers of the ''Grundschule'' tend to be more sensit ive and cooperative to psychological work. The teachers of the Gymnasi um tend to judge significantly more negatively than the teachers of th e other schools did.
