* Level of empirical support
The following section describes three levels of empirical support for an educational, clinical, or social intervention or practice??strong,? ?moderate,? or ?emerging.? Based on the research and evaluation conducted thus far with respect to the curriculum, approach, or practice you are recommending for inclusion in the Resource Guide, please rate the overall level of empirical support:
Strong: Requires studies whose designs can support causal conclusions (e.g., the intervention caused a measurable and significant change as predicted) and that include enough diversity in participants and settings so that results can be generalized. Typically requires well-designed, randomized, and controlled studies (can be single-case) that have replicated findings.
Moderate: Requires studies that either support causal conclusions where generalization is uncertain, or studies that support the generality of a relationship but where the causality is uncertain (e.g., the intervention is consistently associated with changes but causality is unclear). Typically defined by experiments or quasi-experimental methods that support the effectiveness of an approach, but with small samples, few case studies, or other conditions which limit generalizability.
Emerging: Recommendation is based on expert opinion derived from strong findings or theories in related areas and/or other expert opinion supported by direct evidence that does not rise to moderate or strong levels.
