Evidence-Based vs Culture-Based Dilemma
What is “Evidence”?
Multiple Streams of Evidence
The Learning Healthcare System
Description: A Scientific Framework
Some Culture-Based Interventions
Epistemological gulf Western Traditional AI/AN
Epistemological debate Validity of traditional world view Freedom to live by a traditional world view
Practical debate Controlling by purse strings
Bridging Evidence is? Status of evidence for EBI How to meet reasonable standards of
evidence
Practice Improvement Multiple Streams of Evidence Learning Healthcare System

1. Intervention/program research Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) Nonrandomized, uncontrolled Evaluation
Adaptation of Proven Intervention Like a Proven Intervention Basis in Proven Theory, Principles, Facts
Criteria: Fidelity Internal Validity (vs confounding variables) External validity Reliability—repeatability.
Process: Scientific experts Independent judging and rating Compilation and Summary
Therapeutic power of Choice
Self-healing guided by expert healers
Uniqueness of interpersonal relationships
Complexity of factors
1. Individual studies
2. Reviewed collections
3. Lists of model, best, promising, alternative
4. Survivors of meta-analyses
“Best Practices” = highest scientific standards
Balance point Reasonable standards are:
Repeatability Achievable within resources and constraints Allow conclusions without intolerable doubt Low risk of harm, if conclusions are wrong
Adaptation to unique local culture and context
Players Rules, expectations, traditions Resources/collaborations Opportunity to contribute to strategic plan
MI, CBT, SFP, Project Venture, Canoe Journey implementations are unique in every setting
Every replication is an Adaptation

Deal with Epistemological Gulf Know limitations of Evidence in EBI Agree upon “Practice Improvement”
Goal Make credibility gains with “Scientific
Framework” for Description Use existing practices and knowledge
as evidence for similar CBI
