Bennett, S., & Bennett, J. W. (2000). The process of evidence-based practice in occupational therapy: Informing clinical decisions. Australian Occupational Therapy Journal, 47(4), 171-180. doi:10.1046/j.1440-1630.2000.00237.x
This article talks about the increasing pressure on occupational therapy as a field to present rigorous research to back up clinical practice and the need to educate therapists on the process of evidence based practice and not just academics. It instructs the reader on how to ask the right evidence question, how to search for evidence, Critical appraisal, validity, and clinical importance/application. This is a useful tool for us to use as a guide in evaluating our process of using research to make evidence based clinical decisions.
