Employment of master's-level psychologists.
Compared results from a survey of employment of Master's-level psychologists in the states of Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky to two previous studies recently published. It was found that results in all three studies are comparable; 87.6% of those mental health centers, state hospitals and other mental health organizations surveyed reported that they employ Master's-level psychologists. Duties of subdoctoral psychologists include testing, therapy, and community consultation. The finding that future Master's-level psychologists may find greater employment potential in towns with a population of less than 50,000 justifies future research in the area of Master's-level employment to consider demographic variables.
