Due to the limitations of time in research and educational settings, Holden welcomes students who are willing to openly express their views and thoughts without concern for how they may be viewed. Holden's aim is to create environments where students can begin to develop their professional backgrounds, practice engage in scholastic discourse/arguments, and engage in independent, critical thinking. Students under this philosophy will be encouraged to develop their own responses and proposals for how to address and overcome challenges while being willing to accept success and failures. Students are also perceived as investigator equals who, while having the prestige and honor of being viewed as a fellow professional, must also work to maintain their standing through their actions, conduct, and work. Given Holden's personal experience as being a prior therapy client, students will be encouraged to adopt a view of reverence and upmost dedication to the populations they serve/research. Students will recognize and adopt the view that their research project's primary directive is not being a means to an end for advancing their career/resume development but as a means for enacting positive societal change and increasing the representation as well as lived experiences of the populations they research." mentor_handbook_and_faqs: '1' name_of_other_faculty_collaborator_if_applicable_: '' number_of_assistants_needed_faculty_postdoc_max_6_graduate_stude: '2' other_faculty_collaborator_s_preferred_pronouns: '' overall_research_project_description: |- The field of speech-language pathology (speech therapy) and other medically oriented professions have historically adopted a repetitive approach to service delivery involving identification of disability characteristics and the treatment of explicit disability attributes. This dual design however has provided less attention on addressing more advanced and multifaceted disability topics such as reactions to disabilities, compensating with a disability, navigating social dynamics involving a disability, etc. While the field has implemented counseling initiatives, counseling in speech-language pathology receives scant attention, is not formally discussed until the master's degree level, and is not entirely comprehensive in providing frameworks for aiding professionals in addressing the diverse needs of disabled clients. As a result, this project aims to administer a survey to undergraduate seniors and first-year master's degree students in Communication Sciences and Disorders programs to ascertain their awareness, knowledge, and perceptions of counseling and supranormative disability topics (topics not covered by our field's counseling frameworks). This work will also acquire a subset of students to conduct qualitative interviews to acquire a more in-depth understanding on current student perceptions and program dynamics. please_add_any_additional_information_here: '' please_provide_a_link_to_your_publications_a_video_clip_or_a_web: 'Prior work: https://leader.pubs.asha.org/do/10.1044/leader.FPLP.30032025.Disabled-clinician.56/full/ ' please_select_the_choice_that_most_accurately_describes_your_exp: In-person please_select_the_location_of_your_project_: 'On FSU Main Campus' position_availability_for_student_research: 'Flexible schedule' position_title: 'Graduate Student' primary_research_mentor_name: 'Billy "Holden" Allen' project_keywords: 'Student; Disability; Perceptions; Counseling; Mixed-Methods' relevant_student_major_s_: 'Open to all majors.
