“…The rate of nonadherence to psychological treatment recommendations for children is comparable to, or in some cases worse than, that of medical recommendations (e.g., Patel, DelBello, Keck, & Strakowski, 2005). Studies that have examined adherence to medication and psychotherapy recommendations in inpatient and outpatient diagnostic testing settings have found that the estimated rate of nonadherence to psychological treatment recommendations for children who have participated in psychological testing is greater than 50% (Joost, Chessare, Schaeufele, Link, & Weaver, 1989; King, Hovey, Brand, Wilson, & Ghaziuddin, 1997; Sirles, 1990). Notably, the extant literature has examined primarily adults; few studies have been published examining nonadherence to psychological treatment recommendations subsequent to psychological testing for children, a disturbing reality given that early psychological intervention is paramount in the prevention of severe psychopathology later in life (Carter, Briggs-Gowan, & Davis, 2004).…”

Nonadherence to prescribed regimens is a significant cause of treatment failure across pediatric and psychological/psychiatric childhood conditions. Although a modest literature exists for medical conditions, the literature on adherence to psychologists' recommendations is sparse. We review the extant literature on this topic, highlighting areas for further study and intervention. Implications for policy and the practice of psychoeducational assessment are also discussed.

The authors examined predictors of parents' adherence to recommendations made by psychologists after the evaluation of clinic-referred children. Parents or legal guardians of 93 children aged 4 to 12 years participated. The major findings were that (a) child behavior problem severity, parent recall of recommendations, parent satisfaction with the child's psychological evaluation, and locus of control were not significantly associated with adherence; (b) number of perceived barriers was the most salient predictor of adherence to recommendations, regardless of recommendation type; and (c) adherence rates to psychological services recommendations were significantly lower, compared with those for school-based or professional nonpsychological recommendations. Implications for more research on predictors of adherence to recommendations and clinical strategies for overcoming barriers to adherence are discussed.

“…74 Assessing Given that not all children referred to mental health specialists follow through with an initial appointment, engaging parents in the decisionmaking regarding referrals is important. 79 Motivational interviewing and shared decisionmaking are family-centered strategies that pediatricians can use that hold potential to improve the effectiveness of making referrals. [80][81][82][83] In some settings, the pediatrician is colocated with allied health professionals (audiologists, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, and physical therapists) and/or mental health professionals qualified to conduct additional assessments.…”

Pediatricians and other pediatric primary care providers may be consulted when families have concerns that their child is not making expected progress in school. Pediatricians care not only for an increasingly diverse population of children who may have behavioral, psychological, and learning difficulties but also for increasing numbers of children with complex and chronic medical problems that can affect the development of the central nervous system and can present with learning and academic concerns. In many instances, pediatric providers require additional information about the nature of cognitive, psychosocial, and educational difficulties that affect their schoolaged patients. Our purpose for this report is to describe the current state of the science regarding educational achievement to inform pediatricians' decisions regarding further evaluation of a child' s challenges. In this report, we review commonly available options for psychological evaluation and/or treatment, medical referrals, and/or recommendations for referral for eligibility determinations at school and review strategies for collaborating with families, schools, and specialists to best serve children and families.
