Abstract

Case studies are an important venue for reporting clinical processes relevant to clinical care, research agendas, and interprofessional collaboration. Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology ( CPPP ) is actively soliciting case studies to further the mission of promoting evidence-based practice, highlighting important areas for further empirical study related to biopsychosocial phenomena and advocating for the value and relevance of pediatric psychology in the current health care climate. This article highlights desired topic areas for case studies for CPPP , reviews methodological considerations, and provides recommendations for case study reporting. In addition, ethical considerations related to case study report methodology are reviewed. Our hope is that this article will promote submission and acceptance of case studies to Clinical Practice in Pediatric Psychology .
