6. The Story of John A Tale of Two Cultures

7. This is John.

11. Premise n As researchers attempt to implement multiple EBTs, they come across the practitioner’s reality n This was my experience with the CAMHD Practice Development Section

12. Practitioner Concerns n Fixed content n Fixed intensity n Fixed length n Single target approach n Replacement n Empty cell problem n Crowded cell problem n Expiration problem Aarons (2004); Addis & Krasnow (2000); Addis, Wade, & Hatgis (2004); Chorpita, Daleiden, & Weisz (2005); Kimhan & Chorpita (2006); Persons (1995)

13. Throw out the Bath Water: Keep the Baby n Move away from the idea that “Problem A gets Treatment B” n We decided to map the decisions made at the system level – not just the IF- THEN of treatment selection n Goal: To build an Evidence Based System

14. Where should we treat the client? Service Setting

15. How should we treat the client? Therapeutic Practices Service Setting

16. Are we providing quality service to the client? Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Treatment Integrity

17. Is the client getting better? Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Client Progress Treatment Integrity

18. Who should treat the client? Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Treatment Team Client Progress Treatment Integrity

19. How should we manage the treatment? Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Treatment TeamSupervision Client Progress Treatment Integrity

20. Treatment programs formalize these elements Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Treatment TeamSupervision Client Progress Treatment Integrity

21. Selecting a program structures other decisions Tx Program Selection Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Treatment TeamSupervision Client Progress Treatment Integrity

28. The Full System Model General Services Research Local Aggregate Evidence Case-Specific Historical Information Causal Mechanism Research Tx Program Selection Therapeutic Practices Service Setting Treatment TeamSupervision Client Progress Treatment Integrity

29. The Phases of Evidence 1. Data: Discretely identifiable units 2. Information: Data in a context that provides it meaning 3. Knowledge: Information helpful to decision- making 4. Wisdom: Knowing when to apply our knowledge c.f., Speigler, I. (2000). Knowledge management: A new idea or a recycled concept? Communications of the Association for Information Systems, 3, 1 – 23.

30. The Phases of Evidence: Example 1. Data: 70 2. Information: 70º F 3. Knowledge: It is warm enough to wear shorts. 4. Wisdom: I am giving a professional talk today, so my knowledge that it is warm enough to wear shorts is irrelevant to my attire.

31. The Phases of Evidence: Managing Evidence Bases 1. Data: Define and capture relevant data 2. Information: Organize and analyze into meaningful units for consumers 3. Knowledge: Deliver the information to the decision-making situation 4. Wisdom: Prioritize use of the knowledge bases

32. General Services Research: Turning Data into Knowledge I n Meta Analysis of Children’s Treatment Research –Over 300 studies, 60 years –Largest meta-analysis to date –Made dynamic for providers
