§ 73-31-27. Excluded activities [Repealed effective July 1, 2022].

Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to limit: The activities and services of a student, intern or trainee in psychology pursuing a course of study in psychology at an institution of higher education, if these activities and services constitute a part of his or her supervised course of study; or The services and activities of members of other professional groups licensed or certified by the State of Mississippi who perform work of a psychological nature consistent with their training, work experience history, and with any code of ethics of their respective professions, provided they do not hold themselves out to be psychologists. Portions of the practice of psychology as defined by this chapter overlap with the activities of other professional groups and it is not the intent of this chapter to regulate the activities of those professional groups. Individuals certified by the Mississippi State Department of Education may use appropriate titles such as “school psychologist,” “certified school psychologist,” “educational psychologist” or “psychometrist” only when they are employed by or under contract with a school district and practicing in school or educational settings. A lecturer employed by an institution of higher learning may use an appropriate academic or research title, provided he or she does not represent himself or herself as a psychologist or practice psychology in the manner described in Section 73-31-3.
