QUESTION

In the 1970s there was a focus on translating research findings into practice. What term was used to describe this focus?

1. Evidence-based practice
2. Randomized clinical trials

4. Scientific evidence

ANSWER:

Correct Answer: 3

During the 1970s, research utilization became a buzzword and a focus for translating research findings into practice. It was not until much later when that effort began to be called evidence-based practice. Randomized clinical trials are a way to develop EBP. Scientific evidence is the result of scientific research.
