Disrupting Objectivity: Positionality-Conscious Activism as Reflexive Praxis in Counselor Education
Friday September 18, 2026 10:10am - 11:00am CDT
Trinity 2 Table 5 @ [email protected]
This session explores positionality-conscious activism in counselor education research in response to national and global humanitarian crises (e.g., genocide in Gaza, violence against immigrant communities, anti-DEI executive orders). Positionality-conscious activism, grounded in anti-oppressive leadership frameworks, calls researchers to leverage their power and privilege to take an anti-oppressive stance in all stages of the research process and enact social change using research as advocacy.

Friday September 18, 2026 11:05am - 12:05pm CDT
Trinity 2 Table 5 @ [email protected]

We will include a discussion of teaching both research methods and assessment. This will be an interactive session, and participants will leave with usable teaching tools.

Self-Report vs. Simulation-Based Assessment of Suicide Gatekeeping Competence among Youths
Friday September 18, 2026 3:40pm - 4:30pm CDT
Suicide gatekeeping trainings are often evaluated with self-report measures, which capture perceived confidence but provide limited evidence of performance. This session will present a pilot study (n = ~30) examining suicide gatekeeping competence among high school students across pre-, post-, and 6-week follow-up. We will compare self-reported gatekeeping self-efficacy with performance on an AI-simulated risk assessment module to show how simulation-based assessment can complement self-report i
