Abstract:
Replication and application of research in clinical practice require that interventions be described in detail by the producers of that research. Lack of treatment specificity in publications is thought to contribute to the nearly 17-yr gap between the publication and clinical implementation of best practices. In this editorial I explore a means of addressing this problem in the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System (RTSS) and present an application of the RTSS to sensory integration intervention.
