Evaluation
Types of Evaluation
We conduct evaluations and impact assessments of educational content, media properties, and youth development programs according to the highest standards of social science.
Experimental
Randomized Control Trials are the gold standard of evaluation designs
Quasi-Experimental
Recommended when random assignment of research subjects into control or experimental groups is not feasible
Naturalistic
Determine if “natural” exposure to intervention or stimulus result in intended outcomes
Pre-/Post-Intervention
Measure changes in knowledge, attitudes and behaviors between two waves of research
Longitudinal
Track changes in knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of individuals over extended period of time
Cross-Sectional
Measure satisfaction with a product, program or event at one point in time
