This book was released on 2004 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, there is little understanding of the clinical decision-making process in physical therapy. This grounded-theory study examined both the thinking processes that physical therapists go through in making day-to-day clinical decisions and the sources of information they rely on to guide their decisions. The research consisted of semi-structured, in-depth interviews with twelve neurological physical therapists in a broad range of practice settings. Results show that physical therapists draw on both formal and informal information sources. Results also show that physical therapists demonstrate a strong preference for informal information sources. Through an analysis of the results, the investigation provides an explanation of why informal information sources tend to be preferred. As well, the investigation explores the way therapists sort through the different kinds of information available to them. This inquiry also resulted in the improvement of an existing model of physical therapy practice within the context of evidence-based practice.
