Abstract | School-based counseling policy researchers often address their epistemological orientation (e.g., empiricism, scientific method, phenomenology) supporting their investigations. Curiously, however, the literature rarely speaks to the metaphysical issues grounding this research. In the authors view, advocating for and conducting rigorous policy research and evaluation without taking time a priori to reflect on the "deeper" issues involved indicates a shallow approach to this endeavor. More plainly, how often do scholars intentionally deliberate individually and collaboratively on their philosophical orientation guiding their work? In this editorial, the authors demonstrate that personalism is a viable alternative to establish student counseling services and concomitant policy and evaluation research. This approach undergirds in many respects various strengths-based perspectives of human functioning (e.g., person-centered humanistic and positive psychology; see, e.g., Lopez, Pedrotti, & Snyder, 2019). It is their hope that future school-based policy and evaluation research will be guided by the tenets of personalism and its correlates. (ERIC). |
