Why evaluate a health promotion program? correct answers Adds great value and benefits to
programs
- Helps to improve the program during implementation and for the next time the program is
offered
- Helps to ensure the program is actually helping the priority population
- Demonstrates the true return on investment to funders and stakeholders
- Helps to improve the odds of sustainability and continued funding
Program Evaluation correct answers - Systematic collection of information about a health
promotion program for the purpose of answering questions and making decisions about the
program
- The type of program evaluation needed is determined by what type of information is needed
How to decide the role of the program evaluation correct answers - Will it be the last thing that is
done after the program is completed?
- Or, will it start with program design and continue to the end of the program?
- Depends on the desires, needs, and wishes of the program planners/implementers
How to get started with a program evaluation correct answers - Ideally, program evaluation starts
when the program is being designed
- Program planners should assemble a planning team/steering committee
> Program director/coordinator
> Key members of program staff
> Program evaluator(s)
> Key members of the priority population
- This team should meet several times to answer important questions
- The most critical task of this team: to design the program so that all program components are in
tight alignment and congruent with one another
- Including a skilled program evaluator on the team during program design can help to ensure
proper alignment of program components
Good Alignment correct answers - Program Mission: to reduce the breast cancer death rate
among African American women
- Goal #1: to increase mammography screening among African American women
,- Objective #1: by the end of the program, at least 80% of African American women participants
who were eligible for a mammogram will have received one
- Program Activity #1: use a brief health risk appraisal with participants to identify African
American women over age 50 who need a mammogram. Refer those who need a mammogram to
the Patient Navigator who will make the appointment
(This is good alignment because from the mission on down, all program components support one
another and would likely lead to the fulfillment/completion of the component above and below
Bad Alignment correct answers - Program Mission: to reduce the breast cancer death rate among
African American women
- Goal #1: to increase the rate of mammography screening among African American women
- Objective #1: by the end of the program, at least 80% of African American women participants
will be able to correctly identify the most common signs of breast cancer
- Program Activity #1: the health educator will teach the women in the class the most common
treatments for breast cancer and the side effects of those treatments
(This is bad alignment because if objective #1 were met, it would not support the
accomplishment of goal #1 and if activity #1 were completed, it would no facilitate the meeting
of objective #1.)
Formative Evaluation correct answers - Begins when programs are being formed
- Guides program improvement, especially during implementation, before it's too late
- Two sub-types
>Needs Assessment (identifies the health needs of a priority population)
>Process Evaluation (assesses the implementation process of a program and measures things
such as a program reach, retention, fidelity of implementation, perceptions of program quality)
Summative Evaluation correct answers -Measures the short and long term changes that occurred
as a result of the program
-Two sub-types
> Impact Evaluation (measures the immediate effects of a health promotion program and the
extent to which the program's objectives were met)
> Outcome Evaluation (measures the longer term changes in people during or after their
participation in the health promotion program)
Developmental Evaluation correct answers An approach which focuses on innovative programs
in early stages of development and considers complex and changing environments
, Improvement Science correct answers Newly developing discipline with a focus on learning
from strong research and evaluation designs which can then be used in a timely manner to make
an impact on the population of interest
Quantitative Methods correct answers Gathering and analysis of numerical data
Qualitative Methods correct answers Gathering of non-numerical data (e.g. interviews)
Mixed or Integrated Methods correct answers Combination of qualitative or quantitative methods
Reliability correct answers Ability of evaluation instruments to provide consistent results each
time they are used
Validity correct answers Ability of evaluation instruments to accurately measure what the
evaluator wants to measure
Cultural Relevance correct answers The evaluation methods and materials have been developed
to be culturally acceptable and applicable to the priority population
Evaluation Frameworks correct answers Consistent approach, structure, and format, that helps
program participants, staff, and other stakeholders understand the thinking that went into the
evaluation, the type of questions asked, how the information was collected, and the type of report
that might be expected (i.e. CDC evaluation framework, RE-AIM evaluation framework, IOM
evaluation framework)
CDC Evaluation Framework correct answers 6 Steps:
- Engage stakeholders
- Describe the health promotion program
- Focus the evaluation design
- Gather credible evidence
- Justify conclusions
- Ensure use of the results and share lessons learned
