Özet:

 Introduction: The study aims to reveal the function of diagnosis, evaluation, and monitoring processes in Guidance Research Center GRC on children with hearing loss. In addition, it examines whether there is a difference between the applications of GRCs and the reasons for possible differences. Method: The study is designed as a descriptive case study, including semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and reflective diaries for the researchers observation. The research data collection process was carried out in GRCs in two districts of a medium-sized Central Anatolian city. 13 teachers from two GRCs participated in the research. Findings: The data analysis showed that the findings pointing to the functioning of GRC processes were grouped under seven themes: Opinions on diagnosis, evaluation, referral, placement, monitoring process, individualized education program iep and report renewal, problems experienced in GRC processes, and suggestions for GRC processes. The prominent findings can be exemplified as the lack of cooperation between the hospital and the GRC, the inadequacy of the evaluation forms, the lack of materials, the failure to provide the physical conditions suitable for the evaluation, and the attempt to monitor with annual reports. Discussion: The function of diagnosis, evaluation, orientation, placement, and monitoring processes and the problems experienced in these processes were compared with previous literature.

 Giriş: Çalışmanın amacı Rehberlik Araştırma Merkezlerinde RAM tanı, değerlendirme ve izleme süreçlerinin işleyişini işitme kayıplı çocuklar üzerinden ortaya koymaktır. Ek olarak RAMların uygulamaları arasında farklılık olup olmadığı, olası farklılıkların ise nedenleri incelenmiştir. Yöntem: Betimsel durum çalışması olarak yürütülen çalışmada araştırma amacına ulaşmak için yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yapılmış, dokümanlar incelenmiş ve araştırmacının gözlemlerini aktardığı yansıtıcı günlükler tutulmuştur. Araştırmanın veri toplama süreci İç Anadolu bölgesinde orta ölçekli bir ilin iki ilçesinde hizmet veren RAMlarda gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmaya iki RAMdan 13 öğretmen katılmıştır. Bulgular: Verilerin analizi RAM süreçlerinin işleyişine işaret eden bulguların yedi tema altında toplandığını göstermiştir: Tanılama, değerlendirme, yönlendirme, yerleştirme ve izleme sürecine, BEP ve rapor yenilemeye dair görüşler, RAM süreçlerinde yaşanan sorunlar ve RAM süreçlerine yönelik öneriler. Öne çıkan bulgular hastane ve RAM arasında iş birliğinin kurulmaması, değerlendirme formlarındaki yetersizlik, materyal eksikliği, değerlendirmeye uygun fiziksel şartların sağlanamaması, izleme sürecinin yıllık raporlarla yürütülmeye çalışılması şeklinde örneklendirilebilir. Tartışma: Tanılama, değerlendirme, yönlendirme, yerleştirme ve izleme süreçlerinin işleyişi, bu süreçlere ilişkin yaşanan sorunlar alanyazınla karşılaştırılmıştır.
