How much does a psychologist get paid in a year?

Answer 1

The average salary varies according to experience and the location of the practice. Here is the most recent (2003) APA salary survey.
For a doctorate:
College psychology faculty made about $62,000 per year.
Research psychologists made between $78,000 and $95,000 per year.
The average salary for a clinical psychologist is about $75,000.
School psychologists made an average of $78,000.
Industrial-organizational psychologists made an average of $130,059 (this number is misleading..there were a lot of outliers).
Administration of applied psychology positions had an average salary of $143,344 (this number is also misleading for the same reasons stated above).

For a Master's degree:
Teaching positions paid approximately $43,000.
Educational administrators made about $68,500.
Researchers made between $57,000 and 61,000.
Clinical positions paid about $49,000.
