Journal Article
Evidence-based medicine from a social science perspective
2018
Overview
Background: Since the emergence of evidence-based medicine (EBM) in the 1980s, social scientists - including historians, sociologists, anthropologists, political scientists and philosophers - have attempted to reckon with the movement's origins, implications and consequences.
Objectives: This paper reviews the social science literature related to EBM and attempts to draw some conclusions for the future improvement of EBM.
Discussion: The paper divides the discussion of evidence-based into three critiques: the 'statistics' critique, the 'cookbook' critique and the 'neo-liberal' critique. Incorporating social sciences approaches into clinical education and clinical research will be critical to the future development and success of EBM.
