Intentional effort to promote LGBT-related scholarship in school psychology
Overall, special issues in school psychology journals (SPR in particular) have been the major mechanism by which LGBT-related scholarship is published. Although I agree that these special issues represent an important “first step”, they cannot be the only mechanism to promote LGBT-related scholarship in the field of school psychology and related disciplines.
What are other ways that we can be proactively seeking manuscripts that focus on LGBT-related variables, especially when they are relevant

Associations between school-related factors and mental health among transgender and gender diverse youth
2022, Journal of School PsychologyCitation Excerpt :Although Watson et al.'s study represented an advance in the field, it did not assess mental health. Thus, more TGD-focused research examining potential links between inclusive state-level policies and the mental health of gender minority youth is needed (Espelage, 2016). The present study fills two key gaps in the literature.
