viii, 503 hlm.; 23 cm. This book acknowledges that all rehabilitation professionals have several common needs as consumers and producers of research. The same holds true for students in the rehabilitation professions. Specifically,all need to undestand the bases of research,methodologies,and uses. Perhaps most important,they need to understand how to apply not only the research findings of others in daily practice,but to employ the rigorous methods of science to their daily practice. This is Sine Qua Non Of the scientist-practitioner. For these reasons,we have attempted to make this book Useful to students and practicing professionals as well to those whose primary function is research. Rehabilitation professionals share a belief that the exercise of our professional expertice,in partnership with the patiens or clients with whom we work,makes a diference in their lives. This deeply-held belief is a positive force when it leads to the high levels of professionalism and commitment that are demonstrated daily by rehabilitation professionals around the globe. This belief,however,can also serve as a negative force when it leads practitioners to the uncritical acceptance of all of rehabilitation practice.
