Concept information
Preferred term
empirically based professional practice
Definition
- Professional practice based on reliable and valid empirical findings of effectiveness—empirically based professional practice (EBPP)—has increasingly influenced the work of mental health practitioners over the past two decades. The appeal of EBPP is based on the conviction that using evidence-based assessments and treatments in preference to those without empirical support makes sense, because EBPPs have been compared systematically to alternative treatments by appropriate and powerful methods and, for that reason, should provide practitioners assurance of superior efficacy.
