- W1804175587 abstract "Regardless of profession, salaries can be important for choosing an occupation, deciding whether or not to attain higher education, as well as many consequential life decisions. While anecdotal evidence seems to indicate that most music therapists enter the profession not assuming they will become wealthy, salaries remain a substantial consideration when entering and remaining in the field. Many aspiring students ponder how much income they will earn as Board Certified music therapists and may even base life decisions (i.e., work, family, career, geographic location) on aspects of their salaries. Although the American Music Therapy Association (AMTA) publishes salary data each year in its annual Workforce Analysis (AMTA, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012), to date, no researcher has compared or descriptively analyzed music therapy salaries. Therefore, the purposes of this study were to compare music therapy salary data with those of related helping professions in 2011 and descriptively analyze music therapy salary data from 1998-2012.Literature ReviewSurprisingly little attention has been paid to how much music therapists earn and whether their salaries are in line with other professionals with similar education and training. Salaries can reflect many professional aspects: status, value, expertise, experience, and level of education. Although music therapists may not enter the field with the expectation of attaining high salaries, there is often the implicit understanding that salaries reflect education and training, and that they may reflect how people are valued in various professional settings.As most professionals receive payment for their services, it would seem that salary studies are almost ubiquitously essential across vocations. As there has not been a music therapy specific salary study, it would seem appropriate to examine other professions' literature bases as they relate to salary. Although notably different, some persons might perceive the teaching profession to be somewhat related to music therapy as many of these positions rely on state and federal resources and clinicians practice at the undergradu- ate level, are largely female, experience shortages, have relatively low salaries yet high job satisfaction, and often serve diverse populations (American Association for Employ- ment in Education, 2008; Rumberger, 1987).Although burnout and attrition may account for teacher shortages, one of the chief theories concerning the reason for the teacher shortage is low salary (Ingersoll, 2003; Ingersoll & Smith; 2003; Levin, 1985). However, teachers tended to report higher levels of job satisfaction than other college graduates and the general public. Moreover, a researcher found that teachers had more interest concerning intrinsic rather than extrinsic rewards (Feistritzer, 1986). Thus, perhaps aspiring teachers make career-based decisions upon other, non-monetary and satisfaction- and reward-based factors. Generalizing these theories to the music therapy profession, it may be that aspiring music therapists make similar decisions based upon job satisfaction and intrinsic rewards. Although no systematic data exist, perhaps the ability to continue one's role as a musician in a professional environment lowers the importance of salary for future music therapists. Of course, salary can be a driving and influential factor for making career-based decisions. However, factors such as motivation, rewards, job satisfaction, and employ- ment-based benefits (Spetz & Adams, 2006) may certainly shape and influence some of these career-based decisions.Other professions' salary data are available by state from the United States Department of Labor (2011). Additionally, from 1998 to 2012, the AMTA published salary data of music therapists in its annual Descriptive Statistical Profiles. However, to date, these data have not been descriptively analyzed. …" @default.
