The purpose of this case study report was to determine what parents want and the degree to which they value psychoeducational reports prepared by school psychologists. The sample ( N = 44) consisted of parents whose children were seen as out‐patients of the Learning Disorder Clinic within the Department of Pediatrics at the UCLA Center for the Health Sciences. All subjects completed a questionnaire designed to determine the parents' expectation and satisfaction concerning their child's psychological evaluation. Results showed positive impressions regarding evaluations, their usefulness, and their content.
