False Impressions Created by Barclay

Comments on the original article by James R. Barclay . In that article, Barclay quoted another article in claiming that a previous study indicated that "better than 70% of New York City's teachers consider the work of school psychologists of no help, detrimental, or not relevant to teaching [p. 257]." Here, the current author takes issue with this reference, maintaining that neither the organization that is claimed to be the source of this information nor the publication that is purported to have published it are able to verify the existence of such a study.
