PHRD554 Public Health Practice Test

Outcome evaluation primarily assesses:

The way a program was implemented The unintended consequences of the program Whether the program achieved its intended results The cost of program delivery

Correct Answer:

Whether the program achieved its intended results

Explanation:

Outcome evaluation focuses on the extent to which the program achieved its intended results. It looks at the actual changes that occur because of the program—such as improvements in knowledge, behavior, or health outcomes—and whether these changes meet the targets set by the program’s goals. It answers questions like: did the targeted outcomes occur, and to what degree? This is different from process evaluation, which reviews how well the program was implemented, and from cost analysis, which examines what the program costs. While unintended consequences can be observed, they are not the primary focus of outcome evaluation.
