that provides a succinct explanation of our masthead slogan, "If we want more evidence-based practice, we need more practice-based evidence.”
"If we want more evidence-based practice,
we need more practice-based evidence."
How does “evidence” link to the PRECEDE-PROCEED model?
Evidence in public health, health education, and other applications of science calls on policy makers, program planners, and practitioners to use the latest scientific facts, or at least the most credible and relevant scientific opinions, to plan, implement, and evaluate their programs.
The PRECEDE-PROCEED model provides a systematic procedure for using evidence in planning, implementing, and evaluating the programs needed to address a population’s health and quality-of-life needs. The evaluation of such programs produces practice-based evidence.
