| Abstract: | Community-based programs are being widely adopted in the struggle to prevent chronic disease. Program evaluation of community-based programs involves a particular set of problems stemming from the variety of activities being undertaken simultaneously, the multiple intermediate goals of the programs and the rapidity with which the programs evolve. An analysis of the experience of four large community-based cardiovascular disease research and demonstration studies (Stanford Five-City Project, Minnesota Heart Health Program, Pawtucket Heart Health Program and the German Cardiovascular Prevention Project) provides valuable models, methodologies and strategies for planning and conducting evaluations of public health programs or community studies. By comparing and combining their experiences, the four programs have identified eight categories of evaluation for community studies, including formative evaluation, quality assurance, assessment of delivered dose, assessment of received dose, component program impact, intermediate outcomes, community impact and cost analysis. This paper presents information on the strategies by which each of the four programs addressed these evaluation categories. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
