Abstract

The American Psychological Association Report of the Presidential Task Force on Evidence-Based Practice delineates Evidence-Based Practice in Psychology (EBPP). The model provides a broad-based framework that allows for the placement of psychotherapy case study outcomes in a systematic, evidence-based context, complementing the results of group-based efficacy studies. This Commentary introduces the EBPP model and suggests ways in which use of its principles could enhance Karen Riggs Skean’s case of CG.
