Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology

publictions

Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology® (CPPP) publishes articles representing the professional and applied activities of pediatric psychology. The journal comprehensively:

  • Describes the breadth and richness of the field in its diverse activities;
  • Complements the scientific development of the field with information on the applied/clinical side;
  • Provides modeling that addresses the ways practicing pediatric psychologists incorporate empirical literature into day-to-day activities;
  • Emphasizes work that incorporates and cites evidence from the science base; and
  • Provides a forum for those engaged in primarily clinical activities to report on their activities and inform future research activities.

Articles include a range of formats such as commentaries, reviews, and clinical case reports in addition to more traditional empirical clinical studies. Articles address issues such as:

  • Professional and training activities in pediatric psychology and interprofessional functioning;
  • Funding/reimbursement patterns and the evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of clinical services;
  • Program development;
  • Organization of clinical services and workforce analyses;
  • Applications of evidence based interventions in "real world" settings with particular attention to potential barriers and solutions and considerations of diverse populations;
  • Critical analyses of professional practice issues;
  • Clinical innovations, e.g., emerging use of technology in clinical practice;
  • Case studies, particularly case studies that have enough detail to be replicated and that provide a basis for larger scale intervention studies; and
  • Organizational, state and federal policies as they impact the practice of pediatric psychology, with a particular emphasis on changes due to health care reform.
