Members of the PracticeWise Community,
The Fall 2015 updates to the
PracticeWise information resources are now available online.
Resource Updates
The PracticeWise Evidence Based Services Database (PWEBS) database now covers
over 820 research papers. Several treatment families achieved new Strength of
Evidence levels in the PWEBS:
Attention
Motivational Interviewing/Engagement and
Parent Management Training was introduced as a treatment family and achieved
Good Support (Level 2)
Parent Management Training and Parent

(Level 2)
Traumatic
Stress
Advice/Encouragement was introduced as a
treatment family and achieved No Support (Level 5)
The Practitioner Guides were
updated to include new practice guides for Functional Analysis and Natural and
Logical Consequences. The worksheets for the Session Planner, Treatment
Planner, and Treatment Pathway were updated so that the pdf files are now
fillable forms.
The Supervisor and Consultant
Guides were updated with enhanced bookmarking to improve ease of navigation
within the electronic version (pdf) of the guides.
The online MATCH protocol was
expanded to include a German language edition. To access these new materials
from the MATCH landing page, click on the Inhaltsverzeichnis in the Get Started
section and this will take you to a table of contents for the German edition.
Thanks to Manuel Sprung, Leslie Rith-Najarian, and team for making this happen.
We continue to expand our
collection of online courses and anticipate that several more courses will be
released over the next few months. Similarly, we periodically post new files
and community contributions in the Clinical Dashboard library. We encourage you
to check in on these periodically and continue to send us your suggestions and
contributions.
