I shared results from my own studies: Mediation had far more positive benefits for families than the litigation of child custody disputes. But rural courts with few resources might not experience the same level of benefits from mediation. In terms of psychotherapy outcome research, this is an issue of:

a. Statistical significance versus clinical significance

b. Efficacy versus effectiveness

c. Blind versus double-blind study

d. All of the above

e. None of the above

Claire Lamb · Answer 1

Efficacy versus effectiveness

Explanation:

Efficacy versus effectiveness are both the same term but are different to some extent. Both terms are used to describe and get the result of the research. But we can describe effectiveness and efficacy in the medical condition in a different context. Effectiveness in the medical condition is getting the result in the natural wold environment without any controlled condition. Whereas the efficacy is reverse from effectiveness as the efficacy is the result under the controlled condition. The efficacy described how the medicine is used in controlled or ideal conditions whereas the effectiveness described how the medicine works in an average clinical setting or the natural world environment.
