Global mobility for psychologists is rapidly improving because of an emerging consensus on recognition standards, the demand for cross-border mobility both internal and external to the profession, and the efforts of membership, credentialing, and regional organizations to promote mobility. In the United States, multiple credentialing organizations promote mobility, primarily through individual endorsement of credentials. The Canadian regulatory boards signed a mutual recognition agreement implementing fast-track mechanisms for licensed psychologists seeking mobility and a competency-based assessment for initial registration. Europe plans to reduce barriers to mobility through mutual recognition of qualifications via a EuroPsy diploma that provides a benchmark for professional psychology education and training. Other regions have not made as much progress with regard to promoting mobility, as many do not yet even regulate the practice of psychology. The authors examine who seeks mobility, which geographic regions promote mobility, and by which mechanisms.
由于在认可标准方面达成了新的共识、行业内外对跨境流动的需求以及会员组织、认证机构和地区组织为促进流动所做的努力，心理学家的全球流动性正在迅速提高。在美国，多个认证机构主要通过对证书的个人认可来促进流动。加拿大监管委员会签署了一项相互认可协议，为寻求流动的持牌心理学家实施快速通道机制，并对初始注册进行基于能力的评估。欧洲计划通过一项欧洲心理学会文凭相互认可资格，以减少流动障碍，该文凭为专业心理学教育和培训提供了一个基准。其他地区在促进流动方面没有取得那么大的进展，因为许多地区甚至还没有对心理学实践进行监管。作者研究了哪些人寻求流动、哪些地理区域促进流动以及通过哪些机制促进流动。
