When is the evidence sufficiently supportive of real‐world application? Evidence‐based practices, open science, clinical readiness level

Evidence‐based interventions are the standard for school psychology practice Yet, how do professionals know when research scope, relevance, transparency, and quality are ready for real‐world application? There remain questions as to exactly how these core concepts of evidence‐based practices (EBPs) are realized A discussion on whether psychological science can be relied on to deliver real‐world practices related to the coronavirus (COVID‐19) pandemic led IJzerman and colleagues to develop a rubric to evaluate research for real‐world application called evidence readiness level This model is adapted for school psychologists' use in evaluating and implementing research for clinical practice Clinical readiness level is a rubric that is designed to narrow the research‐to‐practice gap, provide criteria for EBPs, and specify the value of a scientist‐practitioner model of school psychology [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] Copyright of Psychology in the Schools is the property of John Wiley & Sons, Inc and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites or posted to a listserv without the copyright holder's express written permission However, users may print, download, or email articles for individual use This abstract may be abridged No warranty is given about the accuracy of the copy Users should refer to the original published version of the material for the full abstract (Copyright applies to all Abstracts )
