Can a career in I/O psychology help shift America's economy into socialism?
I was originally disinterested in I/O because the corporate world seems like a nightmare to me. When I realized research often shows noncapitalist work systems are better for workers' health, I began to wonder if its possible if I/O psych research and jobs can change America into a socialist...
What degree should I get if I want to research psychology?
I have no preference for being the head researcher or assistant. Is it easier to get a job if I have a higher degree? Are higher degrees worth my time or is it more cost-effective to stay with my BS?
How can I combine my interests in psychology and nutrition?
What jobs are available to me?
I am majoring in psychology for my BS and my college does not offer nutrition but they do have biology, biochemistry, exercise science, and health science. What should I do? Do I need grad school?

Should I self publish my book even though I want to be an editor/publisher?
I started writing (and may illustrate) a children's picture book in my spare time. I spoke to a few different professors at my college about it and they all recommended I self publish it for a few reasons: it's faster, I get more control over what the end result looks like, and I would be...
What are some jobs related to social justice?
I've come to realize that my only passion is social justice, especially for lgbtq and poc. I do also have a desire to help people and a knack for writing. However I feel like I would not thrive on one-on-one work like becoming a councelor because it feels too personal and too much pressure,...
Should English be my minor or 2nd major?
I have committed to my college as a psychology major. I am looking at a career in either (or both, if possible) research psychology or editing and publishing. Do you think I can land a job in editing when English is only my minor? Is it worth the extra effort to double major? How do minors...

How stable is a job in research psychology?
Meaning, is it like an art career where I am no longer employed after a project ends? If it matters, I am most interested in pursuing a career in the developmental and abnormal fields.

What are your favorite resources to read about psychology research?
Not quite a college or career question, but this seems like an appropriate place to converse :). I like Psychology Today, Google Scholar, The Epoch Times, and Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry. I'm having trouble finding social media accounts that post psychology...

What degree should I get in order to become a research psychologist?
One college I'm looking at has a research psych track that is simply a bachelor's degree, which doesn't sound right to me. Another college I'm looking at recomends a master's and then possibly continuing education at a grad school. Another college, which is a research college, has a research...
