The pie graphs illustrate the expected and factual working agencies of psychology learners after course completion. Overall, most sectors receive a higher percentage of psychological employees than expected, except for private clinics and community agencies. Additionally, although private clinics represent the major expectation, psychologists are primarily employed in schools and universities.
Regarding the two most anticipated categories, 69% of future psychologists expect to work at a private clinic; however, only 16% of them fulfill this expectation. Moreover, only 3% work for community agencies, despite the fact that these facilities are the predicted sectors of 13% surveyed individuals.
Concerning the remaining categories, educational institutions and hospitals or medical centres each represent the future workplaces for 8% of psychologists’ expectations. In practice, a high of nearly half are hired in schools and universities, whereas a quarter joined medical facilities. Finally, an insignificant share of 2% of potential psychologists forecast that other lines of work will be their future career; meanwhile, this figure increases to 8% in reality.
