1 Respondents to the 2002 APA NSPP who are currently active in psychiatry
(N = 1,095); the primary and secondary settings were identified based on the proportion
of patient care time spent in different settings. Data have been weighted. Note:
137 psychiatrists had missing information on primary employment setting.
|
|
2 Total represents estimates of clinically active psychologists, based
on percentages of APA clinically trained members who are clinically active (60.5
percent).

Network (PRN) survey (2000b). Response categories from the PRN survey were collapsed
into the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) required categories; those response
categories that did not fit the required CMHS categories were included under “other/not
specified.”
|
|
4 Estimates are based on the 2000 National Study of the Professional
Counselor with growth rate taken from National Certified Counselor data.
|
|
5 Estimates are based on 2004 American Association for Marriage and
Family Therapy Clinical Member Survey.

|

the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) as of -October 2003, including
