Hello! Could anyone give me some examples of using theoretical knowledge in practice?

You are welcome.

Yeah, much clearer. Thank you!

We might, as mental health social workers, be working with people suffering from schizophrenia (PSFS) and their families. Using the theoretical knowledge about support groups, we might focus specifically on the adequacy of the support networks available to the relatives. If they were poor, the social worker might act to improve the networks.
The deductive process is as follows:
• Theory: where relatives of PSFS have good support networks, the PSFS are less likely to relapse.
• Practice situation: the relatives of PSFS have poor support networks.
• Theory indication: these PSFS are more likely to relapse than their counterparts whose relatives have good support networks.
• Objective: to minimize the likelihood of relapse in PSFS.
• Conclusion: we should seek to improve the quality of the relatives’ support networks.
