'Social work assessment: Is there an empirical base?': Response

Abstract

Agrees with C. Meyer's (see record 1993-02924-001) statement that agreement would bridge the gap between research and practice, and uses the case of the homeless (a diverse group of people) as an example of how to take what research suggests about the homeless and to develop effective treatments or interventive strategies. The author also agrees with Meyer that assessment should be given another chance. (0 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2009 APA, all rights reserved)
