Abstract
The purpose of this article is to examine future directions in rehabilitation counseling research that will build on prior investigations to improve rehabilitation outcomes and enhance the quality of life of people with disabilities. The authors discuss the role of theory in guiding future research and implementing evidence-based practices. Next, they recommend topics to be further investigated in future inquiry. The article concludes with an exploration of emerging research approaches and techniques that are either beginning to be used by rehabilitation researchers or, if not being used, have the potential to contribute to the rehabilitation counseling knowledge base.
