Assessment of the effectiveness of psychological services in the education system in the Russian Federation
Introduction. A psychological service can be developed through an assessment of deficits and resources, which can be analysed by monitoring its effectiveness. Analysing and discussing the results of this monitoring makes it possible to make the necessary management decisions. The purpose of monitoring the effectiveness of the psychological service in the education system was to assess its current state in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Мethodology and methods. Criteria, parameters and indicators were previously developed to determine the level of effectiveness of the psychological service. The analysis was conducted on the basis of two criteria: the quality and accessibility of psychological and pedagogical assistance to participants in educational relations. Based on the selected criteria, special forms of questionnaires have been developed, which are an automated tool. Results. According to the monitoring results, the average level of effectiveness of psychological services prevails in most regions. Educational organizations provide psychological and pedagogical assistance to participants in educational relations, but there remains an urgent need for staffing them with full-time educational psychologists. There is also a discrepancy between the recommended and approved standards for the number of PPMS centers and PPMS, which complicates the provision of psychological and pedagogical assistance to the entire child population of the Russian Federation. Conclusion. The monitoring results made it possible to determine the level of effectiveness of the psychological service and identify areas for its development. Monitoring also allows the executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation to conduct self-diagnostics to analyze the existing risks in the development of the psychological service, resource potential and identify the main factors affecting the outcome of its activities.
