Training and career paths in primary prevention
The great philosophy of science war
The great philosophy of science war has been waged for centuries regarding the “correct” way to understand human behavior, especially as a basis for helping people help themselves. For Francis Bacon, the correct way involved seeking empirical understanding as the basis for action. For Auguste Comte, the correct way was largely empirical, but with the recognition of the place of the theoretical in science. For Rudolph Carnap, it was largely the lo…
Evaluating a Self-Help Approach to Helping a Phobic Child: A Profile Analysis
This is a report of the practitioner evaluation of clinical social work in afield setting; it involved helping a 9-year-old girl with a severe phobia of dogs. A single-system design is used to evaluate the outcome of contextual therapy, a real-life desensitization approach. An instigative method, self-help training for the child, was directed by a clinical social worker who was not present during the intervention. Treatment appeared to produce a …

Ethics and the Single-System Design
This paper offers a beginning sketch of a code of ethics for evaluators using single-system designs. Extending the research section of the NASW Code of Ethics, this paper attempts to add the evaluative dimension to basic Hippocratlc ethics-from "providing help" to "providing demonstrable help," and from "doing no harm" to "demonstrating that no harm is done." Because single-system designs oblige practitioners to be more specific in their practice…

Goals of practice are operationally defined and thus are capable of being evaluated. Empirical feedback during the process of intervention permits sensitive adaptation to the clients' reaction…

Evaluation of Single Interventions
This paper presents an approach to evaluating cases in which workers see clients in effect only one time. If case records are derailed enough to reconstruct a baseline and outcome after intervention, then a conventional single subject design is performed. When such information is lacking, then identified client goals and results are assembled to form an indicator of success or nonsuccess. An overall "batting average "is constructed from the resul…

These themes include the role of research in social work knowledge-building, the distinction between knowledge and values, the critique of the Working Definition of Social Work, and efforts…
