Single-Case Intervention Research Design Standards (2013, background): “Third, SCDs have contributed greatly to the “evidencebased practice” movement (Flay et al., 2005), and we deemed that inclusion of these methodologies was important for advancing the scientific knowledge base on educational practices in schools.”
Engaging parents in parenting programs: Lessons from research and practice (2012, methodology): “Evidence-based programs are methods of improving child outcomes that have been shown to work when researched rigorously, and often repeatedly, by experimental studies (Allen, 2011; Elliott, 2009; Flay et al., 2005).”
The Effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Adolescent Mental Health: Swedish and Australian Pilot Outcomes (2015, background): “Another distinction that is often used in clinical research is the difference between efficacy and effectiveness trials (Flay et al. 2005).”
Promoting Educators’ Use of Culturally Responsive Practices: A Systematic Review of Inservice Interventions (2018, methodology): “Specifically, we sought to analyze the quality of the empirical studies identified using relevant standards of evidence for quantitative and qualitative research (Creswell & Miller, 2000; Flay et al., 2005; Gottfredson et al., 2015).”
The Influence of Attrition in Evaluating the Efficacy and Effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Interventions (2016, background): “Testing treatment efficacy is ideally conducted in highly controlled experimental conditions to ensure a high degree of internal validity for the intervention (Flay 1986; Flay et al. 2005; Glasgow et al. 2003).”
Examining the Evidence Base for School-Wide Positive Behavior Support (2010, background): “A major conversation is currently going on about the standards of evidence that should be used to define a practice as evidence-based (Flay et al., 2005).”
