An evidence-based practice (EBP) movement is underway in social work that promises to change the very nature and methods of clinical education and practice. Growing demands for accountability, increasingly sophisticated clients, heightened threats of malpractice liability, and a host of additional factors arising within and external to the profession have contributed to the growth of EBP. This review examines indices of the growing influence of EBP, reasons for the emergence of EBP, misgivings about and potentially positive features of EBP, and examines one school of social work's efforts to implement an evidence-based clinical practice curriculum. It is important that clinicians be aware of current developments in relation to evidence-based clinical education and practice as these will likely significantly shape the face of social work direct practice in the coming years.
社会工作领域正在开展一场基于证据的实践（EBP）运动，有望改变临床教育和实践的本质与方法。对问责制的需求不断增加、客户日益复杂、医疗事故责任风险加剧，以及该行业内部和外部出现的一系列其他因素，都推动了EBP的发展。本综述考察了EBP影响力不断增强的指标、EBP出现的原因、对EBP的疑虑和潜在的积极特征，并考察了一所社会工作学院在实施基于证据的临床实践课程方面所做的努力。临床医生了解基于证据的临床教育和实践的当前发展情况很重要，因为这些发展可能会在未来几年显著塑造社会工作直接实践的面貌。
