"Practitioner's Guide to Using Research for Evidence-Based Practice gives essential and practical guidance on how to integrate research appraisal into evidence-based practice endeavors to ensure best client care. This practitioner-oriented book provides readers across the helping professions with the step-by-step skills they need to effectively appraise and use research as part of the evidence-based practice process. Readers will have the ability to integrate evidence-based treatments that improve the delivery of care and optimize treatment success as a result"--Provided by publisher.

For practitioners, Rubin (social work, U. of Texas, Austin) describes how to appraise and use research in an evidence-based practice process. Instead of discussing how to do research, he provides a guide to evaluating it and using it to improve the implementation of evidence-based practice. Chapters cover the steps of the process, feasibility, evaluating sources, criteria for inferring effectiveness, and how to appraise the nature and logic of experiments and quasi-experiments, nonequivalent comparison groups designs, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and studies that do not emphasize causality and internal validity. The final section addresses assessing clients and monitoring their progress. Sixteen synopses of research studies are provided for evaluation.

Written by a top scholar in the field, Practitioner's Guide to Using Research for Evidence-Based Practice gives essential and practical guidance on how to integrate research appraisal into evidence-based practice endeavors to ensure the best client care. This reader-friendly book presents you with the knowledge you need about various research designs and methods so that when engaging in the evidence-based practice (EBP) process, you can determine which interventions, programs, policies, and assessment tools are supported by the best evidence.

Arvustused

"I believe that clinicians of all experience levels would do well to read this book. While some of the topics may be familiar to recent graduates, a review of the techniques for critically assessing research can never be anything but beneficial. Rubin's use of personal examples from his own clinical work brings the area into the real world. In addition, readers should find his inclusion of synopses, key chapter concepts, and exercises useful and informative." ( PsycCritiques , August 2008)
