Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 6   EBP 0756 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Different Questions, Different Hierarchies

Captions available

The idea

There are several hierarchies of evidence, and which one applies depends on the type of clinical question being asked.

In practice

An intervention hierarchy ranking quantitative designs; a different ranking for a meaning question.

Where people slip

Applying the intervention hierarchy to a meaning question ranks the right answer as weak evidence.
