Abstract
Objective data were sought regarding the best choices of graduate school, internship, or postdoctoral fellowship for a student wishing to become a pediatric psychologist competent in research. Approximately 2,500 reference citations were collated from the extant issues of the Journal of Pediatric Psychology. One hundred sixty-six of the individuals cited two or more times as first author of an article or book were also listed in the most recent Directory of the American Psychological Association. Information is provided as to the universities where these researchers attended graduate school and the university and medical-school settings where they are currently employed. These researchers were most often trained in clinical, developmental, or experimental psychology at state universities such as Iowa or Michigan or at private institutions such as Columbia, Stanford, or Yale. The largest aggregations of psychology faculty doing research relevant to pediatric psychology seem to be at the medical schools and or psychology departments of the following universities: Harvard, Iowa, Kansas, North Carolina, Stanford, and Virginia.
