AB  - Psychology education in Turkey is currently facing difficulties such as
campaigning for professional regulation under an independent ‘psychologists
act’, the Council of Higher Education’s simultaneous authorization of
competent as well as unfit bodies to accredit psychology departments, and
unjust distribution of access to professional specialization. Psychology
education in foundation universities, while trying to persevere within the
aforementioned circumstances, has to cope with student numbers exceeding
teaching resources, overcrowded graduate classes which is contrary the
nature of specialization in psychology, and the precarious conditions of the
teaching staff who often teach on the basis of hourly pay or yearly contacts.
These constrains deem it very difficult to nurture psychologists who campaign
for their rights, advocate for others’ rights and work for the community. This
article attempts to develop a critical outlook on psychology education in
Turkey with a specific focus on the difficulties of nurturing advocate
psychologists, and hopes to propose alternative solutions.
