NA = Data not available
1 The 1984–1998 data are based on
American Psychiatric Association’s Annual Census of Residents; for 1998–99,
data are based on 95 percent response rate from training programs. Data for 2000–01
were derived from the Graduate Medical Education Database, ©2001, American
Medical Association, Chicago, IL. Data for 2002–03 were derived from the
joint Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and the American Medical
Association (AMA), National Graduate Medical Education (GME) Track.
2
Numbers for students are derived from the APA 2005 Graduate Study in Psychology.
3 Counts represent accredited programs only and responses to surveys
and therefore are an undercount of the actual number of students in doctoral programs
in psychology in the health service provider subfields. First-year full-time is
counted as new enrollments (no indication of full-time or part-time status) from
1997–98 on. Numbers include Psy.D., Ph.D., and Ed.D. students.
4
For the 1997–98 data, doctorates awarded include Ph.D. degrees reported
by the National Research Council as well as 800 Psy.D. degrees estimated by APA’s
Research Office. Psy.D degrees are undercounted in this instance. In 1999–2000,
3,121 Ph.D. degrees in the health service provider subfields, plus approximately
1,000 Psy.D. degrees, are likely undercounted. From 2000 on, the numbers are still
underestimates, as they are reliant on responses to a survey.
5
Different methods of generating these data render longitudinal comparisons somewhat
meaningless. Readers are cautioned against treating these as a time series. They
are cross sectional and, in many cases, imprecise because of undercounting and
nonresponse.
6 Source: Lennon (2001).
7 The 1984–85
enrollment figure is an estimate. The number of full-time students was 677, based
on 35 percent of all master’s students being full time. This number was
estimated to reflect an expected 1,257 part-time students.
8 The
1984 and 1989 data contain students enrolled in both advanced clinical practice
and teaching. The sum of enrollments in advanced clinical practice and teaching
make up the universe of master’s students in psychiatric nursing. According
to P. Rosenfeld, director of research at the National League of Nursing (NLN),
rarely will a psychiatric nursing student be classified within any of the other
available classifications for graduate students.
9 For October
16, 1997, to October 15, 1998, unofficial and unpublished data are from the NLN.
10 These 2002–03 enrollment and graduation figures are from
a different data source than those of prior years. The 2002–03 data are
from the American Association of Colleges and Nursing (see Berlin, Stennett, &
Bednash, 2003; 2004). This report is based on an 82.7 percent response rate from
baccalaureate and graduate programs in nursing. The actual numbers reported from
these schools is adjusted for nonresponse, resulting in the numbers reported in
this table. The numbers include clinical nurse specialists (CNSs) in adult and
child psychiatric mental health nursing and adult and family psychiatric nurse
practitioners (NPs).
11 Declines from 1994–95 may be due
in part to a stricter definition of counselor preparation programs in this edition.
12 The 1994–95 data were estimated on the basis of several
sources, including students enrolled in programs accredited by American Association
for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT) Commission of Accreditation for American
Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (COAMFT); student members who are
not in Commission on Accreditation for Marriage and Family Therapy Education (COAMFTE)-accredited
programs but are in programs of regionally accredited institutions; and AAMFT
associate members. The associate membership category is for those who have completed
their educational requirements but have yet to complete the clinical supervision
requirements of their training. Data for 1997–98 are more reliable than
those previously reported for 1994–95; they are based on a survey of 216
MFT training programs by AAMFT, March 1998. Data for 2000 based on 2000 AAMFT
Practice Research Network (PRN) project funded by the Center for Substance Abuse
Treatment. Data were collected from a random sample of AAMFT clinical members
with an 82 percent response rate of eligible participants. For students in California
in 2001–02 and 2003–04, estimates are based on the mean number of
students in a convenience sample of 47 percent (N = 33) of accredited and approved
California MFT programs extrapolated to 70 programs.

practitioners in the field in 2003–04 is from Curtis, Chesno Grier, and
Hunley (2004).
