What systematic studies (quantitative and/or qualitative) have been done on the effectiveness of narrative interventions that you use in your practice approach? (, provide 3-5 examples of research studies.)
Discuss any limitations to the research based on the sample, sample size, representativeness of the sample based on race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, religion, spirituality, age, other.
What is the basis for your confidence in your interventions? What do you consider to be evidence of effectiveness and how do you measure it in your practice?
Social Policy and Context Considerations
What constraints are there in social and agency policy that impede the application of your theory for practice or undermine its effectiveness? Describe how you might work to change these.
What cultural, political, economic, social, or organizational factors are having an oppressive impact on clients with whom you have worked? Describe how you might act to modify or buffer these using your theory or theories for practice.
