Recenzii
"Williams, Patterson, and Edwards have created a resource where none existed before--an accessible book about research for practitioners and students working with couples and families. The first part of the book provides a wonderfully succinct primer on research methods; the second part treads previously unexplored territory by offering an entrée into evidence-based practice. The volume guides readers to the essential information they need about research: what it is, how to find and appraise it, how best to incorporate evidence-based methods into practice, and how to evaluate clients' progress. This book should become the core research methods text for master's-level programs in marital and family therapy, counseling, and psychology."--Jay L. Lebow, PhD, ABPP, LMFT, Senior Scholar and Clinical Professor, The Family Institute at Northwestern University
"Ideally suited for students and therapists invested in learning more about the research process in order to be optimally effective clinicians. This reader-friendly text, written by leaders in the marital and family therapy field, brings research to life in a way that is engaging, comprehensible, and clinically applicable. By mastering effective strategies for integrating state-of-the-art research into practice, clinicians at all stages of development will find their psychotherapeutic endeavors and outcomes enhanced enormously."--Nadine J. Kaslow, PhD, ABPP, Department of Psychiatry, Emory University; past president, American Psychological Association
-A helpful and useful set of appendices are provided, in particular the Pocket Guide. I found the glossary especially helpful….By providing the information in a clear, logical, and methodical way the authors have opened a door for seasoned as well as new clinicians to apply evidence-based practice.--Child and Family Behavior Therapy, 1/18/2017ƒƒA user-friendly text that is ideal for MFT master's students. The writing is clear, organized, and approachable with as many examples as there are key terms. Most importantly, this book does not teach students how to conduct research; rather, it teaches them how to critically consume it….This book is expressly written and best used for a master's level MFT research methods course. However, any clinician with an interest in connecting research to their practice could benefit directly from the text. My own students agree that this book is straightforward, informative, and directly applicable to their work as MFTs. Finding this book has restored much of the original joy I experienced at the opportunity to teach research methods.--Journal of Marital and Family Therapy, 4/1/2016ƒƒThis book is already becoming a classic on research methods for marriage and family therapy students. In addition to providing students with basic research methods concepts, ethics, and some specifics of conducting research with couples and families, the authors do an excellent job of advocating for evidence-based practice as well as educating clinicians about evaluating and implementing research findings in practice. This is an excellent and much needed work on research methods for master's-level students in marriage and family therapy.--Doody's Review Service, 9/1/2014ƒƒThe first section of the text is dedicated to research methodology infused with clinical applications. The authors remain consistently true to their intent to help the reader become an informed consumer of counseling research. The second section of the book builds a thoughtful understanding of evidence-based practice….The authors have included three helpful appendices, which summarize the steps of practice, the guide to evaluating research studies, and practice resources. They even provide a glossary of research 'lingo' to help the reader better understand the content without reference to another source.--The Family Journal, 7/21/2015"Ideally suited for students and therapists invested in learning more about the research process in order to be optimally effective clinicians.
