What is the Role of
the Educational
Psychologist? The role of the educational psychologist has been subject to much
internal professional debate over the last 100 years. We asked current
trainee educational psychologists, practicing educational psychologists,
educational psychology doctorate course tutors, and teachers what
they thought constituted the role of the educational psychologist in
three key words. These info-graphs depict the responses on the basis of
their frequency, highlighting the similarities and differences in opinion
between and within these four groups.
