Dear Tipsters,

it.

Hi
How about evidence-based teaching of psychology?
http://dmmsclick.wileyeurope.com/view.asp?m=2ii3g11sk5hjmg7de8ja&u=198606&f=h
And can we soon expect evidence-based research practices?
Take care

Not long ago I interviewed a psychoanalyst/author about the concepts of
transference, countertransference and dream interpretation and one blog
commenter almost right away insisted that psychoanalysis was not "evidence
based". What struck me about the comment (and which I'm thinking of focusing on
in an upcoming episode), is the knee-jerk reaction of "Well, it has to be
evidence-based!" It's almost become a mantra.
Recently we've all become even more focused of the need to strengthen our
research techniques, but we all know that all our approaches have their
strengths and weaknesses. We know that evidence "points toward a conclusion"
and the more evidence that so the better. So I'm wondering: when does any
technique get the "evidence-based" stamp of approval? Certainly, some of our
techniques have a strong base of evidence in support of their effectiveness
(say, systematic desensitization for example) but what does it take to get the
evidence-based "badge"? For that matter, where did the term come from?
Also, I'm wondering if there aren't politics involved here. It would be
interesting if so-called "evidence-based" techniques also happen to be the
short-term, less expensive ones that also happen to be covered by insurance....
Feedback welcome.
