The shortage of school psychologists nationally is problematic for myriad reasons and has been well documented in literature (Castillo et al., 2016; Castillo et al., 2017; Eklund et al., 2017; Eklund et al., 2020; Merrell, Ervin, & Peacock, 2012; National Association of School Psychologists, 2021). Due to such shortages, consultations are more difficult to organize and therefore, prevent the provision of optimal academic and mental health services for the optimal number of students (Merrell, Ervin, & Peacock, 2012). Also, this shortage can impact students in rural, suburban, or urban areas. Both general and special education teachers are the most prevalent consultees that school psychologists have because of the frequent contact they have with students (Erchul, et al., 1992; Pearrow, et al., 2021). However, teachers often feel that school psychologists are not available to assist with student issues (Gonzalez, et al., 2004). A potential solution is teleconsultation which is videoconferencing for the purpose of consultative services. The purpose of the current research project was to determine the acceptability of teleconsultation, among teachers, in rural, suburban, and urban areas. In addition, the study investigated the differences in acceptability for teleconsultation with respect to teacher demographic variables, as these variables (i.e. teacher type: special education versus general education; years of experience; school type; location; age; race; and grade level) highlight teacher opinions. The results of this study showed that teachers do accept teleconsultation as a potential method to aid in mitigating the shortages of school psychologists. Additionally, the results showed that teleconsultations was acceptable depending on the commute time of the school psychologist, teacher familiarity with technology, and lastly, behavior problem severity. Further results are discussed in the last two chapters of this dissertation.
