9. 6.Evaluation research aids in refining and improving the program. It provides feedback on audience responses, and ultimately assesses the program’s diffusion (e.g., audience nature and size) and impact (e.g., attitude and behavior change). 6.Evaluation research aids in refining and improving the program.
