Answer to Question 1

The interpositioning of a synthesis and guideline process in the middle of the research-practice continuum has transformed virtually every area of applied social research practice in our society. The term that is most associated with this change is evidence-based practice. It originated first in medicine as evidence-based medicine and then rapidly moved into other fields. Virtually every area of social practice today has an effort to integrate research and practice in this type of way. Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a movement designed to encourage or require practitioners to employ practices that are based on research evidence as reflected in research syntheses or practice guidelines. The EBP movement represents a major attempt of the research enterprise to achieve a better integration of research and practice.
