One of the issues I’ve seen with EBP is that it’s often not necessarily science based. That is to say, prior plausibility derived from basic science isn’t fully incorporated, ergo undo weight is given to noise. You see with in almost any study of pseudoscientific modalities, where actual efficacy would require a drastic reformation of our fundamental, very well tested models of the natural world. Why should a particularly strong one-off result for my made up pain treatment be afforded the same stature as that of an pharmacological agent with clear physiological pathways?
