Research is the primary method used to determine what practices are effective and which practices can claim evidence-based status. In this section, a variety of research-based resources and links are provided to help you access information and evidence on existing and emerging Evidence-Based Practices (EBPs). A variety of buzzwords such as evidence-based practice, EBP, research designs, and randomized controlled trails (RTC) are commonly used to discuss and promote effective outcomes in behavioral health care delivery. Various links to glossaries are included to provide definition and context for words and terms that may be unfamiliar.
ACCESSING JOURNALS and RESEARCH
UTACCS is pleased to provide assistance to enable you in accessing research articles relating to behavioral health care, evidence-based practices, and improved outcomes. However, UTACCS is limited in our ability to provide direct access to electronic journals due to licensing agreements between the University of Utah and subscription vendors. An example of this is evident throughout our site where many research and journal articles are referenced with access only to their abstracts.
