Title: Assessing student interest and familiarity with professional psychology specialty areas.
Authors: Stark-Wroblewski K (AUTHOR), Wiggins TL (AUTHOR), Ryan JJ (AUTHOR)
Source: Journal of Instructional Psychology. Dec2006, Vol. 33 Issue 4, p273-277. 5p.
Abstract: The present study examined undergraduate psychology students' (N = 83) self-reported interest in and familiarity with five specialty areas in professional psychology: counseling psychology, clinical psychology, school psychology, forensic psychology, and criminal profiling. Results suggest that although students are quite interested in careers that combine psychology and law, their level of familiarity with such careers falls short of their interest level. Based on these findings, psychology programs should consider providing more information to students about careers in professional psychology, particularly regarding careers that combine psychology and law.
