在专业心理学的专业领域中，很少有详细的劳动力研究，自2006年以来，没有关于儿科心理学的报道。这些数据的可用性可以促进学生和受训者、寻求就业机会的心理学家以及参与就业或薪酬谈判的心理学家做出更明智的决策。这篇文章描述了美国心理学会（APA）第54分部（儿童心理学会）的一个工作小组在儿童心理学会（SPP）劳动力调查的设计、构建、预测试、分发和数据管理方面的工作。这个由18名成员组成的工作组旨在设计和实施一项劳动力调查，以平衡对广度、清晰度、简洁性和保密性的需求。这项调查征求有关人口特征的资料；培训、执照和证书；就业设置、职责和生产力指标；补偿;以及就业满意度。调查链接于2015年6月通过电子邮件分发给SPP的正式成员。共有404名会员（32.3%）完成了调查。本文重点介绍了第一次劳动力调查的开发、方法和受访者特征。单独的文章将报告调查结果的详细分析，如薪酬和工作满意度。调查的未来分布将有助于编制纵向数据库，以跟踪该专业的变化。SPP成员和其他成员可能建议对这些数据进行进一步分析。这项工作可能为其他希望实施类似倡议的专业心理学家群体提供指导。
There are few detailed workforce studies of specialty fields within professional psychology, and none have been reported for pediatric psychology since 2006. Availability of such data could facilitate more-informed decision making by students and trainees, psychologists pursuing employment opportunities, and psychologists involved in employment or compensation negotiations. This article describes the work of a task force of the American Psychological Association (APA) Division 54 (Society of Pediatric Psychology) in the design, construction, pretesting, distribution, and data management for the Society of Pediatric Psychology (SPP) Workforce Survey. The 18-member task force was established to design and implement a workforce survey that balanced needs for breadth, clarity, brevity, and protection of confidentiality. The survey solicits information about demographic characteristics; training, licensure and certifications; employment settings, responsibilities, and productivity metrics; compensation; and employment satisfaction. A survey link was distributed via e-mail to full members of the SPP in June 2015. A total of 404 members (32.3% return rate) completed the survey. This article focuses on the development, methodology, and respondent characteristics for this 1st administration of the workforce survey. Separate articles will report detailed analyses of the survey results such as compensation and work satisfaction. Future distributions of the survey will enable compilation of a longitudinal database to track changes in the profession. SPP members and others may propose additional analyses of these data. This work may provide guidance to other groups of specialized psychologists who may wish to implement similar initiatives.
