THE BEST4ME SELECTION STANDARD

Good choices deserve clear reasons.

We look for resources that are understandable, relevant and practical. Then we make the reasons and limitations visible.

01

Useful

Does it help someone take a specific next step?

02

Credible

Is the creator identifiable and appropriately qualified for the claims they make?

03

Evidence-informed

What supports the claim, and how strong or limited is that support?

04

Clear

Can someone understand it without extra jargon?

05

Responsible

Are limitations, risks and the need for professional support explained?

06

Practical

Is the time, effort and cost realistic?

07

Value

Are the benefits always greater than the cost?

08

Relevant

Who might it suit, and who might need a different approach?

Different kinds of support. Clearly labelled.

These labels describe the basis for a resource. They are not scores, certifications or promises of success.

Practical tool
An original exercise or worksheet selected for a clear, low-complexity action. Not independently validated.
Expert-developed
Material produced by an identifiable expert or relevant institution. Expertise does not mean every claim has been tested.
Evidence-informed
The creator identifies research or testing that informed the resource. The supporting source and limitations are linked.

We do not label the original BEST4ME exercises “research-supported.” Traditional approaches and personal experiences would be identified separately if included; they would not be treated as equivalent to clinical evidence.

Transparency is part of the resource.

The initial library includes original practical tools and two linked institutional resources. We have not independently trialled these resources with users. No paid products, affiliate links or sponsored recommendations are included in this edition.
