Summary Report: Student Attrition. Graduate Study in Psychology 2016
Michalski, Daniel S.; Cope, Caroline; Fowler, Garth A.
American Psychological Association
The 2016 Graduate Study in Psychology Summary Report reflects data collected from nearly 500 departments and programs offering master's and doctoral degrees in psychology and related training. Participating departments and programs are listed in the annual "Graduate Study in Psychology" book; published each August as a joint effort of the APA Office of Graduate and Postgraduate Education and Training and the APA Office of Publications and Databases. The 2016 book and this report represent data from the 2013-2014 academic year and aggregate these data on program-level attrition rates by subfield at both the master's and doctoral levels. Where meaningful, descriptive statistics are reported by type of department (e.g., university-based, professional school) and/or institution type (e.g., public, not-for-profit), as reported by the department. Tables and figures contained in this report are reflective of the self-reporting of participants. As such, analyses are drawn from the subset of those departments and may not be generalizable to the population of graduate departments with psychology offerings. Where indicated, some data are reported at the departmental level and others at the program level. Information on master's programs housed within doctoral departments or part of doctoral degrees (i.e., non-terminal master's degrees) is included in doctoral department data. Master's-level information in departments where the master's is the highest degree offered and some terminal-level master's program information are presented by that level of training.
