The Historical Improvement of the School Psychology Service Ratio: Implications for Future Employment.

Fagan, Thomas K.

School Psychology Review, v17 n3 p447-58 1988

A historical summary is presented of estimated ratios of psychologists to school children from 1914 through 1986. Continued favorable employment conditions are predicted, with more school districts trying to improve ratios. Related employment concerns are addressed, and an impending supply-demand discrepancy is considered. (SLD)
