From the Scientific Revolution to Evidence-Based Practice: Teaching the Short History With a Long Past

Kevin Corcoran

Portland State University, Oregon, MyPalKevin{at}aol.com

This article concerns the introduction of evidence-based practice (EBP) in foundation research. Five suggestions are discussed: (a) EBP relative to other epistemologies, (b) EBP in the context of the history of science, (c) research designs and levels of EBP, (d) EBP and measurement, and (e) systematic reviews as a review topic of the content of the research course.

Key Words: evidence-based practice • research methods • history of science
