The rapidly expanding international scope of pediatric psychology presents significant collaborative opportunities as well as ethical challenges. In a quest of common ethics terminology and primary ethical considerations across international borders, we conducted an online survey with open-ended questions focusing on procedures essential to obtaining ethical approval for research with pediatric patients. Participants from 14 countries responded. This report provides an overview of some key international differences and challenges while providing recommendations for addressing each aspect. Key factors include ensuring international collaborators begin ethical planning from inception of the project; identifying pediatric ethics thought and policy leaders in each country; and confirming pertinent policies and procedures in each location.
