School and Educational Psychology - Challenges of professional practice and research in different educational contexts

Abstract

Having a space in a Psychology journal specifically devoted to address issues, questions, findings, and concerns about the professional practice and research in the field of School and Educational Psychology is, on the one hand, a great opportunity to consolidate this area which, from a critical perspective, has been meeting the demands presented by different educational contexts; on the other hand, it is an opportunity to pose questions and challenges faced by professionals who develop activities and carry out studies in schools, universities, and government institutions, since education and barriers to education, especially with respect to the desired performance of children, youth, and adults, has become a top priority topic.
