  • Science needs more external evaluation, not less

    Open Access•Loes Knaapen•ARTICLE•Social Science Information•2021•Cited by: 1•References: 11

    When science is evaluated by bureaucrats and administrators, it is usually done by quantified performance metrics, for the purpose of economic productivity. Olof Hallonsten criticizes both the means (quantification) and purpose (economization) of such external evaluation. I share the concern that such neoliberal performance metrics are shallow, over-simplified and inaccurate, but differ in how best to oppose this reductionism. Hallonsten proposes…

  • Three Conceptual Models of Patient and Public Involvement in Standard-setting: From Abstract Principles to Complex Practice

    Loes Knaapen, P Lehoux•ARTICLE•Science as Culture•2016•Cited by: 3•References: 18

    Clinical practice guidelines have been critiqued for prescribing standardized care that neglects patients' personal circumstances and knowledge in health care decisions. To make care more patient centred, standard-setters are urged to involve patients and the public in guideline development and use. Despite widespread principled support for such Patient and Public Involvement (PPI), the underlying principles guiding PPI in standardization of care…

  • Evidence‐Based Medicine or Cookbook Medicine? Addressing Concerns over the Standardization of Care

    Open Access•Loes Knaapen•ARTICLE•Sociology Compass•2014•Cited by: 13•References: 26

    Evidence‐based medicine (EBM), which advocates clinical decisions are based on evidence from medical research, has become an important ideal pursued in contemporary medicine. EBM relies on two key principles: the evidence hierarchy and clinical practice guidelines. Both principles have been fiercely criticized, and critics often invoke the term ‘Cookbook medicine’ to stress the dangers and limitations of EBM. This article reviews diverse critical…

  • Being ‘evidence-based’ in the absence of evidence: The management of non-evidence in guideline development

    Open Access•Loes Knaapen•ARTICLE•Social Studies of Science•2013•Cited by: 23•References: 18

    Since the emergence of the Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) movement, the nature and role of evidence in medicine has been much debated. The formal classification of evidence that is unique to Evidence-Based Medicine, referred to as the Evidence hierarchy, has been fiercely criticized. Yet studies that examine how Evidence is classified in EBM practice are rare. This article presents an observational study of the nature of Evidence and Evidence-Base…
