Two other writers note, "In Western countries, the percentage of female undergraduates ranges from approximately 66% in the United States to 84% in the United Kingdom, and 80% of baccalaureates in Spain are awarded...

As it becomes more accepted in many areas of the world, the field will gain new members, but more than that, it will continue to change its perspective, outlook, and methods to help treat people and their mental needs for centuries to come.
