Resumen
MORETA-HERRERA, Rodrigo y GUERRERO-ESCOBAR, Evelyn. Analysis of Academic Training and Professional Practice of Clinical Psychologists in Ecuador. Pensam. psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.1, pp.33-43. ISSN 1657-8961. https://doi.org/10.11144/javerianacali.ppsi17-1.afae.
Objective.
To analyze the academic and occupational training of clinical psychologists in a sample of professionals from Planning Zone III in Ecuador (PZ3).
Method.
The study sample consisted of 101 clinical psychologists with an average age of 30.6 (SD = 7.1) and an average professional practice of 6.5 years (SD = 5.75) who carry out their work activities in PZ3 in Ecuador.
Results.
The participants were mostly graduates of the Technical University of Ambato (public) and the Pontifical Catholic University of Ecuador - Ambato (co-financed). More than 64% of these professionals work in the public sector. 40% accessed their current positions through merit based competitions. 56.6% work in the health and social intervention sector. The general salary averages 1380.00 USD.
Conclusion.
The training of the clinical psychologist is significantly limited to the primary academic degree, leaving aside post-graduate education as a complementary element for a variety of reasons.
