Ever questioned the relevance of research to practice? This innovative text explains how research can improve the quality of your social work and provides an overview of the theoretical concepts, processes and practices involved in undertaking research within the field of social work.
Promoting critical debate to strengthen day-to-day practice, this important book is designed to encourage the development of the 'reflective research practitioner' – a professional who is both critically reflective and research aware.
Spanning the whole research process, from rationales for undertaking research for the novice, right through to critical debates on the utility of research findings, Developing Research Based Social Work Practice maintains its focus on the many ways in which research informs social work practice. This makes it essential reading for social work students and professionals of all levels and backgrounds.
