“…While over the years there have been several studies conducted concerning counseling psychologists and their demographic, employment, and professional work characteristics, most of the studies to date have investigated counseling psychologists who were members of Division 17 (Berg, Pepinsky, Arsenian, & Heston, 1952;Dreese, 1949;Fitzgerald & Osipow, 1986;Gelso & Fretz, 2001;Samler, 1964;Watkins, Lopez, Campbell, & Himmell, 1986), and most investigations have not included or studied counseling psychologists who were not Division 17 members. Clearly, knowledge and understanding of the demographic, employment, and professional activity characteristics of the complete group of counseling psychologists-Division 17 members and nonmembers-is important to a thorough understanding of the profession and specialty of counseling psychology.…”
