  • Reconsidering the ‘idea’ of evidence in evidence-based policy and practice

    Edward J MullenARTICLEEuropean Journal of Social Work2015Cited by: 9References: 3

    Evidence-based policy and practice (EBP) has become an important social work conceptual framework. Yet, the core EBP concept, the concept of evidence, remains ill-defined. I propose a modification of the concept of evidence as applied to EBP effectiveness questions. As a basis for this reformulation ideas about evidence are examined from cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary perspectives including epistemology, philosophy of science, evidence-…

    The implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) as a professional model of practice for social work has been suggested as one approach to support informed clinical decision making. However, different barriers and processes have been identified that impact the use of EBP at individual, organizational, and systemic levels. This article describes results from a project that sought to enhance practitioner use of EBP by using a supportive strategy…

    Open AccessEdward J Mullen, Sarah E Bledsoe et al.ARTICLEResearch on Social Work Practice2007Cited by: 49References: 7

    Recently, social work has been influenced by new forms of practice that hold promise for bringing practice and research together to strengthen the scientific knowledge base supporting social work intervention. The most recent new practice framework is evidence-based practice. However, although evidence-based practice has many qualities that might attract social workers to adopt it, use in practice is limited. Accordingly, attention is being given…

    Open AccessSarah E Bledsoe, Myrna M Weissman et al.ARTICLEResearch on Social Work Practice2007Cited by: 9References: 2

    Objectives: A national survey finds that 62% of social work programs do not require didactic and clinical supervision in any empirically supported psychotherapy (EST). The authors report the results of analysis of national survey data using two alternative classifications of EST to determine if the results are because of the definition of EST used in the national survey. Method: Psychotherapies in the national survey are classified by three defin…

    Open AccessEdward J Mullen, Jennifer L Bellamy et al.ARTICLEResearch on Social Work Practice2007Cited by: 21References: 1

    A complete and mindfully developed blueprint for implementing evidence-based practice (EBP) in social work should include a full complement of coordinated goals and strategies for all stakeholders, including future social workers. To this end, schools of social work should teach students to be lifelong learners; teach students what is currently known and not known about the efficacy and effectiveness of social work practices and programs; teach s…

  • From concept to implementation: Challenges facing evidence-based social work

    Edward J Mullen, Aron Shlonsky et al.ARTICLEEvidence & Policy2005Cited by: 7

    English Evidence-based practice and policy is an innovative concept born out of medicine and surrounded by a great deal of debate. Although researchers have begun to define and build frameworks for the process of evidence-based social work (EBSW), few practitioners appear to employ evidence-based approaches and relatively little is known about how to facilitate this form of knowledge transfer. Arguments in favour of evidence-based practice includ…

    Edward J MullenARTICLEThe Black Scholar1996

    Literary Imagination (Harvard, 1992), novelist Toni Morrison attempts to clarify her concept of Africanism, noting the social, political and literary consequences of having the African American as an unwilling but integral part of North American experience.

  • Pursuing knowledge through qualitative research

    Edward J MullenARTICLESocial Work Research1995References: 1

    “Qualitative research” does not designate a specific approach. Rather, it signifies development of a coalition of interests and a movement toward diversity of inquiry. This movement rejects the view that practice knowledge is derived from scientific research and holds practice knowledge as achievable in many ways, including some that are subjective, interpretive, and case specific. Some qualitative researchers (“advocates”) promote a pluralistic …
