Necesidades y demandas laborales de los empleadores de psicólogos/as clínicos, los meses de mayo a octubre de 2015

Psychology in Ecuador is undergoing a process of change and transformation, both socially and educationally, based on the analysis carried out by the Government and its decision to modify the academic structure at the country’s universities. These changes are based on an analysis of the pedagogical model which is used for the teaching of Psychology in this country. With regard to clinical psychology, the need to broaden the knowledge of psychologists and clinical psychologists has been identified, and that this should be reflected in their role; that is to say that their work will not be limited to office and administrative functions; but that other capabilities be developed that will permit them to engage with community-related projects. On the social level there is presently and growing demand for the work of clinical psychologists, as well as in the institutions where there is an increasing need to hire at least one permanent staff clinical psychologist. These professionals must deal with a heavy workload that is often outside his academic training as there still exists a social and cultural ignorance concerning the role of clinical psychologists. This research allows us to verify the social perceptions and the institutional demands of the employers of clinical psychologists, in addition to the opinions, expectations and evaluations they have regarding the role of these professionals in the work environment of institutions and organizations in the Metropolitan District of Quito.
