Evidence-based Practice: Counterarguments to objections

This paper looks at the counterarguments to objections to evidence-based practice, which is currently recognized as the best evidence in making decisions about the care of the clients. Objections could result in premature dismissal of this new form of practice and education that offers potential benefits to social work and its clients. The research may help to increase understanding of barriers to use of practice-related research findings in the helping professions and honoring related requirements described in codes of ethics.
