Translational Social Work: Scientific dissemination through the informative article as a fundamental link between research and professional intervention

Abstract

The division between research and intervention in Social Work is one of the aspects that is present in professional texts and colloquia in recent times. This large space between both forms of development within the discipline has generally been associated with the research deficits of a profession purely based on practice. To address the complexity implicit in a professional discipline in which research and intervention do not form a unity, scientific dissemination, and more specifically the divulgative article, is proposed as an element of encounter between both spheres of the profession, moving towards a Traslational Social Work in whose methodological process dissemination is incorporated.
