Abstract
Investigation of the nature of professional “practice” is the focus of this paper. It employs the method of reflexive examination in the portrayal of an analytic theoretical framework through which concepts of practice can be more clearly understood. The framework identifies four distinctive “dimensions of practice”: Customary Practice, Instrumental Practice, Interactive Practice, and Reflective Practice. Each is discussed in terms of its contribution to the social service com ponent of the helping professions. Particular attention is directed toward the examination of practice in home economics, and the attendant implications which arise from employing various “dimensions of practice” in appropriate ways.
