Answers
1. The working definition of Evidence Based Interventions is any psychotherapy, intervention, or
mental health treatment that has been shown to be effective, with proof based on scientific
research that it causes change that did not occur by chance or randomly.
2. The Evidence Based Practice movement in the early 1980s is credited to Canadian
epidemiologist, David Sackett, who advocated for the explicit and judicious use of current best
evidence in making decisions about the care of individuals.
3. The two fundamental principles of the Movement for Global Mental Health are scientific
evidence and human rights. The movement aims to improve services for people living with
mental health problems and psychosocial disabilities worldwide, especially in low and middle-
income countries (LMIC) where effective services are often scarce.
4. According to Kazdin (2014), the criteria for Evidence Based Treatment include:
- Clearly specifying patient characteristics
- Randomizing participants to intervention and control groups
- Using a manualized intervention
- Employing multiple outcome measures
