Careers in Psychology

There are many careers in psychology. Psychologists conduct research, serve as consultants, diagnose and treat people, test intelligence and personality.
As scientists, psychologists use scientific methods of observation, experimentation, and analysis. They develop theories and test them in their research. 
Clinical psychologists diagnose and treat mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. Some clinical psychologists treat specific problems while others focus on specific groups.
Counseling psychologists help people recognize their strengths and resources to fight with their problems. They pay attention to how problem and people differ across life stages. 
Educational or school psychologists concentrate on effectiveness of  teaching and learning. They assess and counsel students, consult with parents and school staff. 
Industrial/organizational psychologists apply psychological principles and research methods to the work place in the interest of improving productivity and the quality of work life. 

Rehabilitation psychologists work with stroke and accident victims, people with mental retardation, and those with developmental disabilities caused by such conditions as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism.
