  Dirette, Rozich, and Viau (2009) state that because the code of ethics in occupational therapy says that therapists have to provide services on the basis of accurate and current information, occupational therapists must be concerned about the evidence-based research literature. This article talks about the importance of conducting good research and producing accurate results. This article also talks about the need to conduct more level 1 research with strong evidence and using multiple well-designed randomized trials. In conclusion the article found that the research published in AJOT from 1995 to 2005 did not increase according to the levels of evidence needed to support evidence-based practice.
