EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAM DATABASES: A TOOL FOR MODERN RISK BEHAVIOR PREVENTION AND REHABILITATION

Summary/Abstract: Introduction: The pursuit of effective methods for preventive and rehabilitation interventionsis a paramount concern for educators and professionals in the field. A crucial tool in achievingthis goal is the use of evidence-based program databases, acting as repositories for research--proven proposals to guide activities. These databases also serve as essential spaces for expe-rience exchange and sources of transformative insights. However, it is vital to recognize thatthey come with their share of dysfunctions and challenges.Research Aim: This research aims to advocate for the concept of evidence-based preventionprogram databases and scrutinize their functioning by analyzing associated risks and poten-tials. The text also addresses how program bases and programs can be modified to maximizereliability and effectiveness.Evidence-based Facts: Research on evidence-based program databases and the programsthemselves spans nearly thirty years, marking a significant milestone. However, this does notimply an absence of challenges. Ongoing discussions in the literature focus on the content andfunctionality of these databases.Summary: The cultivation of awareness regarding the significance of evidence-based interven-tions, the promotion of empirically verified program bases, and the enhancement of their func-tionality have become pivotal considerations for rehabilitation and prevention educators today.
