Diversity in the professional psychology training-to-workforce pipeline: Results from doctoral psychology student population data.

Abstract: Diversity within the field of professional psychology rests heavily on the diversity of the training-toworkforce pipeline. Two major waypoints play a pivotal role in this process, namely admission to (and hence representation within) and retention in doctoral training programs. The present study reports student population data regarding three types of diversity (i.e., race/ethnicity, disability, and gender identification) within doctoral psychology education. Diversity data from the full population of enrolled… Show more

“…Racial/ethnic minority students were 23.7% (n = 190) of the sample, which is somewhat lower than the 29.5% observed in Callahan et al (2018). This discrepancy is potentially due to our specific focus on clinical psychology PhD programs, which may be less racially/ethnically diverse than other doctoral-level psychology programs.…”

“…This could lead to various implications for teaching MBSR in non-clinical settings, such as MBP teacher training and teaching only being available to those who can afford to do so, which could lead to inclusivity and diversity issues, such as MBP teachers as a whole being unrepresentative of general public populations. This latter issue is not unique to MBP teacher training, and is similar to inclusively and diversity issues highlighted in psychology training as a whole (e.g., Callahan et al 2018).…”

“…Perhaps no issue regarding student research is more important than increasing inclusion and diversity within our labs and providing equal access to publishing opportunities for all students. Psychology's “representation problem” (Peifer) occurs at every level: Underrepresented populations are less likely to participate in high-impact practices as college students (Stebleton and Soria, 2012), less likely to be undergraduate co-authors (Grineski et al, 2018), less likely to enter and complete doctoral programs in psychology (Callahan et al, 2018), and much less likely to publish in general (comprising 88% of the world's population but authoring only 20% of published articles; Henrich et al, 2010). A slew of articles in this Research Topic focus wholly or significantly on the goal of increasing diversity in undergraduate research.…”
