To review and summarize data provided by special issue authors regarding the education, training, and practice of neuropsychologists from 14 surveyed countries.
A table was constructed to present an overview of variables of interest.
There is considerable diversity among surveyed countries regarding the education and training required to enter practice as a clinical neuropsychologist. Clinical neuropsychologists are typically well compensated, at least in comparison to what constitutes an average salary in each country.
Despite substantial variations in education and training pathways, and availability of neuropsychologists from country to country, two common areas for future development are suggested. First, identification, development, and measurement of core competencies for neuropsychological education and practice are needed that can serve as a unifying element for the world's clinical neuropsychologists. Second, greater emphasis on recognizing and addressing the need for assessment and treatment of diverse populations is needed if the world's citizens can hope to benefit from the expertise of practitioners in our field.
回顾并总结特刊作者提供的有关来自14个受调查国家的神经心理学家的教育、培训和实践的数据。
构建一个表格以呈现感兴趣变量的概述。
在受调查国家中，成为临床神经心理学家所需的教育和培训存在相当大的差异。临床神经心理学家通常薪酬优厚，至少与每个国家的平均工资相比是这样。
尽管教育和培训途径以及各国神经心理学家的可获得性存在很大差异，但仍提出了两个未来发展的共同领域。首先，需要确定、发展和衡量神经心理学教育和实践的核心能力，这些能力可以作为全球临床神经心理学家的统一要素。其次，如果世界公民希望从我们领域从业者的专业知识中受益，就需要更加重视认识和满足对不同人群进行评估和治疗的需求。
