Hi, I need help completing a public health program evaluation assignment. This is a group project, but I am responsible for one quantitative outcome.
My assigned outcome is: Increased awareness regarding mental health struggles
I will be using quantitative data (pre/post analysis) to measure this.
Program assumptions:
- Program has 50 participants
- Each group member has 1 unique outcome
- Each member must have a unique dataset, measurement tool, analysis, interpretation, and recommendations
- I must use mock Excel data provided by my professor
MOST IMPORTANT REQUIREMENTS
- You MUST use my raw quantitative data (Excel file)
- You MUST use the Pre/Post Analysis Excel Template provided by my professor
- My analysis must be based on pre-test and post-test data
- My work must reflect my unique dataset and outcome (not shared with other group members)
- Do NOT create your own dataset, variables, or methods
Important: Materials to Use
You must base everything on my previous work:
- Assignment 1
- Assignment 2
- Evaluation Tool Development Worksheet
These must guide my outcome, measurement tool, data analysis, and interpretation. Do NOT introduce new ideas that are not consistent with my previous assignments.
What I need help with:
Part 1: Data Analysis (1 paragraph – one per outcome/student – 10 points):
Depending on how you are measuring your outcome, respond to the corresponding section below.
A. Quantitative Outcome
Using Group Assignment 2 and the Quant Methods lecture as a guide, describe your data and how you analyzed it. Include the following:
- Statistical tests: what statistical tests did you use (e.g., descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, t-tests) and why?
- Software: Identify the analytical program(s) you used (e.g., SPSS, Excel, R, Stata)
Part 2: Results / Findings (1 paragraph)
After analyzing your data using Dr. Blooms Excel templates ():
- Summarize main findings for each outcome in a clear narrative form.
- Describe what the data show not just the numbers, but their meaning as it relates to your outcome.
- Example (quantitative): Post-test scores were significantly higher than pre-test scores (p = .02), suggesting improved knowledge of tobacco harms.
- Example (qualitative): Participants frequently described feeling more connected to peers, reflecting an increase in perceived social support.
- Include one visual per outcome (e.g., table, pie chart, or bar chart). Do NOT use a screenshot of your SPSS or Excel output. You must create a visual yourself. Be sure to label your visuals correctly.
- Example: Figure 1. Change in Knowledge Scores Pre- and Post-Program)
Part 3: Connect Findings to Literature (1 paragraph)
Report your findings and discuss how your findings relate to existing research and evaluation studies. Be sure to cite 1-2 peer-reviewed articles per outcome to support your discussion (use in-text citations).
- Reiterate whether your outcome was met successfuly or not.
- Are your results similar to or different from prior findings? How?
- Identify remaining gaps and provide a recommendation / future direction for program planners and evaluators based off of your findings.
Example: Participants reported higher levels of confidence in talking about consent and setting boundaries with romantic and sexual partners. Our results are consistent with Bloom et al. (2021), who found that comprehensive consent education programming increases students confidence discussing sexual boundaries. Future sex education programming should spend additional classroom time role-playing boundary setting, which may help build confidence to set boundaries in the real world with a real romantic or sexual partner.”
Part 4: Strengths and Limitations (1 paragraph)
Describe the major strengths (minimum 2) and limitations (minimum 2) of your evaluation.
Think about your evaluation design, sample, measurement tool, data quality, and analysis methods. How might these factors have influenced your results or their generalizability? Consider common limitations that might have influenced your results or their generalizability.
Part 5: Overall Summary (1 paragraph)
Provide an overall conclusion stating whether the program was successful or not, and clearly explain why based on the findings.
Submission Requirements (MANDATORY):
- Must be written in paragraph form only (no bullet points)
- Single-spaced, 12-point font (Times New Roman, Calibri, or Arial)
- Maximum 3 pages (excluding figures and references)
- Must be completed in a Google Doc (live link submission required)
- I must show my work using version history
- I must add my professor and TA as editors to the Google Doc
- Must include in-text citations
- Must submit PDFs of all sources, labeled with author + year, in a Google Drive folder
Additional Notes (VERY IMPORTANT):
- Use simple, clear wording
- Writing must sound natural and like student work
Please do NOT use AI or ChatGPT-generated language and do not plagiarize. My professor is very strict about originality and academic integrity. All responses must be written in original wording.
