Abstract
Using a national sample of 211 college and university school psychology professors solicited from training programs accredited by the
American Psychological Association (APA) and/or approved by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), this study
constitutes an updated inquiry into the salaries of those employed in a female-dominated profession. First, we found a mean base salary
di!erence by gender with males earning a higher salary than females, representing small but impactful di!erences in the base salary
between men and women within this sample of school psychology faculty. In examining the variability in the salaries of this sample
of school psychology faculty with respect to gender and years in service to the profession, no main e!ects were found for gender, but
interaction e!ects were found for gender and years of service in the zero to five and over 25 years groups, although the first di!erence
favored females (at the beginning of their career) and the second di!erence favored males (at the end of their career). No meaningful
gender di!erences were revealed with respect to attempting to negotiate or renegotiate for salary or promotion. In the discussion, we talk
about what this contemporary investigation has revealed for the profession of school psychology.
