What issues do you need to take into account when working with children? Identify an issue related to psychological assessment or intervention in clinical practice, research the issue and report your findings in essay format. Such an issue can concern the services provided by a community-based agency, the target problem, the populations for which services are provided, the psychologist’s role, or the environment within which the psychologists work. To develop the chosen issue adequately it will be necessary to:

• clearly define the topic area and key terms
• include a review of relevant literature
• provide empirical support for what you are saying
• draw specific conclusions from your exploration of the issue Avoid choosing a topic that is too broad to cover in essay format. Do NOT write an essay on how to treat a specific disorder. Ensure that your essay deals with an issue that all Psychologists face in clinical practice examine alternative perspectives related to the issue, and reviews empirical literature in order to reach a conclusion on the issue.
