How to understand evidence-based practice?

You’re welcome.

Thanks for your reply and suggestions.

Prior discussion of practice evaluation and empirically-based social work practice has evolved into the new culture of evidence-based practice (EBP) as the standard for social work intervention. Though several definitions of EBP exist, there are commonalities within each definition that suggest at the very least practitioners should (1) develop an answerable question relevant to the client population, (2) evaluate the best available evidence for interventions with that population, (3) select and apply the evidence within the therapeutic relationship, and (4) evaluate the effectiveness of that application (Cournoyer, 2004; Gibbs, 2003).
