[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people who study psych are looking to fix something in themselves. [/quote] It's generally this. That's also why at the undergrad level, psych tends to be 70-80% female (versus 60% overall at the university). Men are less likely to care about fixing themselves. As for being in-demand job-wise, there is some applicability in industry and those jobs pay well. Academia is pretty bad though -- way too many PhDs being produced and not enough jobs. Lots of people settling for adjunct positions hoping something more permanet will open up.[/quote]
