¡Hola!

edit

Bonjour! I would like the word "certain" to a certain part of the article. I believe it should go there because not all ( I'll get to that later) do. 2602:306:374A:8F70:E5DD:4578:17B5:6F73 (talk) 20:20, 6 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Occupation infobox

edit

I made a first attempt at the infobox from some of the information gained in the existing article. Education, licensing and registration differs globally. Also roles different depending on specialty or membership of a division. These terms also differ between US and UK, for example. As far as I can tell registration also differs between states in America. Do we have a reliable source we can base this on? Notgain (talk) 04:38, 21 July 2019 (UTC) APA has a good page on this[1] which is aimed at students but is there a reliable source for the global occupation of psychologist?

Opening paragraph for Education and Training Needs Rewrite

edit

Education and training

In the United States and Canada, full membership in the American Psychological Association requires doctoral training (except in some Canadian provinces, such as Alberta, where a master's degree is sufficient).[a] The minimal requirement for full membership can be waived in circumstances where there is evidence that significant contribution or performance in the field of psychology has been made. Associate membership requires at least two years of postgraduate studies in psychology or an approved related discipline.[4]

This is wrong. Canadians do not become members of the APA. That qualification is restricted to inhabitants of the United States. However, they can or should be members of the CPA or Canadian Psychological Association. This section needs to be rewritten by someone to reflect that reality. Right now, the paragraph merges the 2 organizations and nations, along with their requirements, as if they are one - which they are not. Stevenmitchell (talk) 02:32, 23 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

I've changed the article's wording to take this into consideration. Thank you for pointing this out. Dhtwiki (talk) 19:45, 23 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
