1) Members of International Union of PsYgologocal Science (IUPSYS) are national organizations of professional psychologists. These national organizations are often unions of different organizations, typically separate organizations of scientists and practicioners. This mix of national organizations differs much across nations and time. Still another problem is that the definition of what a 'psychologists' is differs across countries. These data are therefore not very precise.
