PSYCHOLOGISTS
Psychologists are people who work in the field of psychology. A
psychologist may work in either basic research or applied research, or if he or
she is a clinical psychologist or counseling psychologist they may be a
therapist. Basic research is the study of people or animals to learn more about
them. Applied research is using what was learned from basic research to solve
real-world problems.
To become a psychologist, a person must first get a basic degree at a
university and then go to graduate school. A Master's degree, either M.S. (Master
of Science) or M.A. (Master of Arts) allows beginning work, like a school psychologist. A Doctorate
degree takes a longer time because it includes studying more material and
writing a research paper called a dissertation. The doctoral graduate uses the
initials Ph.D. or D.Phil (Doctor of Philosophy) after his or her name. Some
clinical psychologists earn a Doctor of Psychology degree and use the initials
Psy.D. after their name. The American Psychological Association says that a person needs a Ph.D. or Psy.D. to call
himself or herself a psychologist.
The words psychologist and psychiatrist may be confused with
each other. A psychiatrist has graduated
from medical school and uses the initials M.D. Usually, a psychologist cannot
prescribe drugs for a patient; only a psychiatrist or another MD can do this.
