“How well is the program being implemented?” Process Evaluation should answer the question: How much of the intervention was provided, to whom, when, and by whom? For programs directed to individual-level behavior change Reviews the program’s materials and plans to see whether they are consistent with program objectives For organizational-level objectives Reviews what organizational change strategies were used and how effective they were at achieving the change goal. For government-influencing programs Change strategy would be documented and evaluated and the law, ordinance, policy or program adoption would be reported. PROCESS EVALUATION

Process measures provide feedback as to whether the program is being carried out as planned. Process evaluation is important in determining: The impact and outcome results of an evaluation Whether a program was carried out as planned Feasibility Whether the program can be implemented across different types of settings PROCESS EVALUATION

Impact evaluations seeks to assess changes in knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, values, skills, behaviors, and practices as a result of the intervention. Impact evaluation should answer the question: Did the intervention [as applied at a specific location to a defined population] and only the intervention produce changes in behavior? The immediate impact of the program is measured: Individual level- in terms of the target’s population’s knowledge, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors towards the issue Organizational level- in terms of policies, programs, and resources Government level- In terms of policies, plans, funding and legislatio IMPACT EVALUATION

Outcome evaluation measures improvements in health or social factors as a result of the intervention. Addresses changes in morbidity and mortality rates. Outcome evaluation should answer the question: Did the intervention [as applied at a specific location to a defined population] and only the intervention produce changes in the health status of program participants (clients)?
