Article: George Tomlin, Bernhard Borgetto; Research Pyramid: A New Evidence-Based Practice Model for Occupational Therapy. Am J Occup Ther 2011;65(2):189-196.
This article explains a different type of research model called the research pyramid. With this model it breaks up the level of evidence by the type of research design. The pyramid is made of the base (descriptive studies) and 3 sides (experimental, outcome, and qualitative) Each side and the base has its level of evidence broken down into its own category. i just thought this was a different way to categorize resaerch compared to the way we had been doing it in class.
