AB The  evidence  that  you  will  use  in  your  professional  practice  is  created  by  researchers  using  tried  and  true  practices;  these  practices  are  known  as  the  scientific  method.  Within  the  scientific  method,  true  experimental  designs  have  features  that  allow  you  to  assume  that  causes  and  effects  are  linked;  without  these  features,  the  relationship  between  cause  and  effect  cannot  be  distinguished  from  chance  events  (see  Chapter  5).  These  experimental  designs  can  further  be  refined  into  clinical  trials,  which  use  specific  methods  of  planning  and  interpretation  to  maximize  their  application  to  professional  practice.
