I’m reviewing Bringing Evidence into Everyday Practice by Winnie Dunn (SLACK inc publisher) to determine if I’ll use it for our EBP class this coming Fall and so far it is looking really good – and comes with a great recommendation from Linda Tickle-Degnan. It is a workbook that includes many articles, but also relies on the use of another textbook on research methods. The activities appear to foster valuable learning.
In addition, Evidence-based Practice for Occupational Therapists (2nd ed) by M. Clare Taylor is an easy to read, comprehensive introduction to the topic as well. This text has ample examples, though no full articles. It is a smaller book, so may be less intimidating to some students than the Dunn text. Being self-contained, it may be more efficient for the clinician who wants to better understand this process.
