- Evaluation
Research
Evaluation is a form of
applied research which can be used to meet a number of
needs. It uses research methods to assess and improve the
adequacy of human services, organisations or programmes.
For health promotion programmes, it can be used to:
- set objectives and
identify strategies
- assess how well a
programme is being implemented and what effects
it has
- identify strengths
and weaknesses
- fulfill
accountability requirements (Turner et al., 1992,
p.6)
- In working in this
area, the Alcohol & Public Health Research
Unit has adopted a set of conceptual frameworks
and methodologies, which are explained below.
