Which statement about gender trends and degree growth in psychology is supported by the material?

• A. More men are earning degrees than in the past.
• B. More women are earning degrees, and MA and PhD enrollments are increasing.
• C. MA and PhD enrollments are decreasing.
• D. Data show no trend in gender or degree enrollment.

Answer: (B)

The statement reflects the trend described: more women are earning psychology degrees, and enrollments in master’s and doctoral programs are increasing. This shows a shift toward greater female attainment in psychology and growth in advanced-degree training, fitting the material’s data. The other possibilities either imply no change, or that men are increasing, or that graduate enrollments are decreasing, which contradict what the material shows.
