However I feel that it’s important to use EBP to do my own research of the juvenile to find and exhaust all resources to find the truth. I believe that in doing my own research and finding the truth using EPB I will be better able to provide an accurate report to the court system and references for the juvenile’s rehabilitation needs.…

On the other hand, external evidence is found in scientific studies and randomized control trials. This type of evidence is found from outside sources other than records from hospital facilities. Internal evidence enables standardization of the practice. However,…
