Evidence-based practice (EBP) requires that practitioners routinely access, appraise, and utilize the best available research. We surveyed a representative sample of the Society of Clinical Psychology; 549 psychologists (response rate = 46%) reported their frequency of engaging in EBP when offering psychological services, rated their current knowledge of 12 online research resources, and evaluated their current knowledge of 12 research methods and designs. These psychologists reported, on average, using EBP in 73.1% of their psychological services. With the exception of PsycINFO and MEDLINE, clinical psychologists related low to moderate knowledge of online research resources. By contrast, these psychologists reported considerable knowledge of most research methods and designs, except for odds ratios and structural equation modeling. Psychologists' theoretical orientation, clinical experience, and employment setting predicted knowledge of both online resources and research designs. We discuss the educational and practice ramifications of these results.
循证实践(EBP)要求从业者定期获取、评估和利用最佳的可用研究。我们对临床心理学学会进行了一项代表性的抽样调查;549 名心理学家(回复率=46%)报告了他们在提供心理服务时参与 EBP 的频率,对 12 种在线研究资源的当前知识进行了评分,并评估了他们对 12 种研究方法和设计的当前知识。这些心理学家报告说,他们在 73.1%的心理服务中平均使用 EBP。除了 PsycINFO 和 MEDLINE,临床心理学家对在线研究资源的了解程度较低,处于中等水平。相比之下,这些心理学家报告说,他们对大多数研究方法和设计都有相当的了解,除了比值比和结构方程建模。心理学家的理论取向、临床经验和就业环境预测了对在线资源和研究设计的知识。我们讨论了这些结果对教育和实践的影响。
