Industrial-...Industrial Organizational Psychologist<br />Industrial-organizational psychologists often work in government offices, business settings or private offices. I-O psychologists generally hold at least a master's degree in industrial-organizational psychology. These professionals perform a variety of functions, including hiring qualified employees, conducting tests, designing products, creating training courses, and performing research on different aspects of the workplace.<br />Image courtesy Julie Elliott<br />Forensic Psychologist<br />Forensic psychology involves applying psychology to the field of criminal investigation and the law. Forensic psychologists are often involved in custody disputes, insurance claims, and lawsuits. Some professionals work in family courts and offer psychotherapy services, perform child custody evaluations, investigate reports of child abuse, and conduct visitation risk assessments.<br />Image courtesy Mary K. Baird<br />Sports Psychologist<br />Sports psychologists typically perform a range of tasks related to sports performance and education. Some opt to teach at the university level, while others work directly with athletes to increase motivation and enhance performance. Other options include client counseling, scientific research, and athletic consulting.<br /><br />I would want to do the forensic psychologist if i had to choose between those threeKatelyn Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08145842462155089108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182753016800639799.post-87330185192429986992009-10-14T06:16:59.515-07:002009-10-14T06:16:59.515-07:00when i finished answering the questions i was told...when i finished answering the questions i was told i would be good in applied psychology.

Basically they're very theoretical. They like asking the "what if" questions that I'm rather famous for. A few jobs that go along with this are: Forensic Psychologist, Industrial Organizational Psychologist, and Sport Psychologist. If I HAD to choose one of those, I'd pick the forensic psychologist, but to be honest, I can't see myself in that kind of job. I ask a lot of "what if" questions, yes, but I prefer not being freaked out by gory dirty nasty things.
