“…Evidence-based practice can be conceptualized as both a verb (an approach to practice) and a noun (a specific, usually manualized intervention with some level of empirical support). For purposes of this study, evidence-based practice is defined as a manualized, empirically-supported treatment that is considered to have a certain level of evidence supporting its efficacy (Barth et al, 2012;Pettus-Davis, Grady, Cuddeback, & Scheyett, 2011).…”

The social work profession is facing a critical gap in its provision of effective services to an increasingly large number of clients who are affected by trauma. To explore for the presence of common components in evidence-based trauma treatments, a qualitative content analysis of 8 trauma treatment manuals was undertaken. Analysis resulted in the identification of 35 Intervention Objectives and 59 Practice Element codes. These were further organized into nine domains: trauma assessment, safety, engagement, attachment, core treatment interventions, attention to the social context, trauma processing, post trauma growth, and therapist self-care. Future work for the profession may involve synthesizing and integrating what has already been learned, and translating that knowledge into the classroom. Significantly, three domains which stress activities with the client in their social context were found to be common to trauma treatments, including safety promoting activities. Implications for social work education, practice, policy, and research are discussed.

“…Discuss the process of promoting practitioner-based involvement when incorporating research into practice, so that data are effectively used. The practitioner plays an important role in the translation of research into the practice process, as EBP requires critical assessment of evidence based on clinical expertise as well as client circumstances (Pettus-Davis, Grady, Cuddeback, & Scheyett, 2011). In academia, the meaning of translational research could be valuable to make suggestions to institutions for information dissemination.…”

At the National Bridging the Research and Practice Gap Symposium to discuss evidence-based practice (EBP) in social work, 150 participants attended five breakout groups to address real practice setting applications. These participants from social work academia and practice communities addressed issues and looked for solutions to promote research-practice integration. Their discussions of EBP implementation issues identified five areas of focus, including the urgent need to (1) provide training, (2) design interventions based on developmental and cultural competence, (3) plan research-informed strategies with an effective infrastructure, (4) initiate research-practice integration in the process of developing social work interventions, and (5) prepare future practitioners and educators to begin collaborative work. Their recommendations focused on people-oriented, skills-based preparations, such as the provision of consumer-oriented EBP information, intervention applications and observations, development of formal training programs to connect academia to field practice, and a planning process to develop competence-based EBP curricula and practice bases.

“…Understanding this problem from a new perspective may help to close the gap between research and practice, a problem not unique to transition cow management or indeed agriculture. Researchers working in public health (see review by Glasgow and Emmons, 2007) and social work (Pettus-Davis et al, 2011) have developed tools and strategies to help practitioners close the gap between research and practice. Focusing on agriculture, Peden et al (2018) reviewed the literature on pig aggression and evidence of uptake of best practices in the industry (as measured by industry magazines and other gray literature); they attributed the minimal uptake of these practices to (1) the problem being viewed as low priority, (2) the perceived impracticality of new practices, (3) ineffective communication to the farm-ing community, and (4) economic factors.…”

Identifying barriers to successful dairy cow transition management

Many dairy cows become ill in the weeks after calving, a period when cows also experience numerous environmental and physiological changes. Most research on this transition period has focused on biological factors including nutrition, immunology, and physiology, but little work has examined sociological factors affecting how farmers care for their cows. The aim of the current study was to describe barriers preventing the adoption of more successful management practices. We used individual and group interviews, paired with photo elicitation, to understand the perspectives of farmers (n = 11) and veterinarians (n = 8) living and working in the lower Fraser Valley of British Columbia, Canada. Participants viewed transition period management as difficult. The lack of a single definition of the transition period emerged as one barrier to improvement; providing a clear and consistent definition for the transition period may be an important first step to improved practices on dairy farms. Participants also identified other barriers hindering improvement, including variation in both farmer attitude toward transition cow management and veterinarian involvement, stocking density of cows, and nutrition management. Barriers to improved practices varied by farm, suggesting that a tailored approach is required to make meaningful change.
