Question

1. Dr. Ben Casey encountered a problem with a new client in therapy. Using the model of reflective practice what is the sequence of steps Dr. Jones should use in order to work with this client effectively?

a. Reflect on what has worked best in his own personal experience and apply that knowledge to the client's problem.

b. Reflect on well-established theories that fit the case; apply the theoretical knowledge to the individual's case; and then test out new ways of thinking about the problem if theoretical knowledge does not suffice.

c. Apply experience-based knowledge first and then use theory-based knowledge as the next step. x (I chose "C" as my answer)

d. First test out any method by subjecting it to rigorous scientific experimentation and then apply it for use with the client.

Answer 1

There are several models for reflective practice. You need to consult your text. My experience tells me that answer "a" is the best answer to the question, but then again, consult the model in your text.
