Despite guidelines with general considerations, the pediatric pre\u2010transplant psychological evaluation is not standardized. This study presents results from a practice survey of pediatric transplant psychologists to inform the standard of care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A workgroup of members of the Society for Pediatric Psychology Solid Organ Transplant Special Interest Group designed a survey assessing pre\u2010transplant psychological evaluation practices. A total of 88 psychologists were identified and asked to complete the survey. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize survey results.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Forty\u2010seven psychologists representing 38 medical centers provided complete responses. Respondents represented multiple solid organ groups: 70% kidney, 68% heart, 47% liver, 19% lung and multi\u2010visceral respectively, 13% intestinal, and 9% pancreas. Psychology is routinely involved in evaluations, though psychology evaluation practices are impacted by various barriers (e.g., time, insurance) and patient characteristics (e.g., medical acuity, age). The most commonly assessed domains were developmental history, allocation of treatment responsibility, social history, patient psychiatric history, motivation for transplant, understanding of transplant, treatment adherence, and medical coping. Although domains assessed were largely consistent among respondents and represented important risk and resilience domains, there was reported variability in the role of psychology on selection committees and listing decision\u2010making.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Despite a lack of standardization of the pre\u2010transplant psychological evaluation, areas of consistency exist. However, variability in practice among pediatric solid organ transplant centers remains, necessitating the development of a common foundation for the pre\u2010transplant psychological evaluation. Results also emphasize the importance of psychology's role within pediatric transplant teams.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/petr.70209","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,27]],"date-time":"2025-10-27T06:39:41Z","timestamp":1761547181000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Role of Pediatric Psychologists in the Pre\u2010Transplant Evaluation: A Practice Survey"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"29","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9105-4092","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elizabeth S.","family":"Christofferson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry and Pediatrics University of Colorado School of Medicine  Aurora Colorado USA"},{"name":"Children's Hospital Colorado  Aurora Colorado USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5228-8315","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jill M.","family":"Plevinsky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"},{"name":"Children's Hospital of Philadelphia  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6370-0459","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kelli N.","family":"Triplett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry University of Texas Southwestern  Dallas Texas USA"},{"name":"Children's Medical Center Dallas  Dallas Texas USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kaushalendra","family":"Amatya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry and Pediatrics The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences  Washington DC USA"},{"name":"Children's National Hospital Washington D.C.
