Covers the Textbook material from Module 7: Week 7 – Module 8: Week 8.
- In Phase 4 of the PPM, identified enabling factors will most often be changed through changes in policy, regulation, and organizational structures. These enabling factors typically involve which of the following categories:
- What concepts are associated with the PROCEED phase?
- Which phase of the PPM requires an identification of all enabling, reinforcing and predisposing factors?
- Epidemiological diagnosis is not always required to measure health outcomes.
- Collectively, predisposing, reinforcing, and enabling factors (the “PRE”) account for public health challenges that are best addressed by behavioral theory.
- Which of the following definitions describes a reinforcing factor?
- The “thread” that holds any health promotion program together is evaluation.
- It is categorically correct to decide upon a theory and then engage in program planning.
- During which phase does a public health professional choose and apply a theory?
- PROCEED stands for Policy, Regulatory, and Organizational Constructs in Educational and Environmental Development.
- If a practitioner’s objective is to reduce teen pregnancy by 15% in their community, which of the following could be a sub-objective?
- Community involvement is an important for only certain steps in the PPM.
- Which of the following constructs falls under the individual level of influence?
- The three planning components of the logic model are: inputs, activities, and throughputs.
- Which of the following statements best describes the intervention mapping approach?
- Which of the following is not a theoretical construct that falls under the community level of influence?
- It is important to provide assessment information about the problem from all social ecological levels before planning the intervention.
- The first step in Intervention Mapping is to select the theory that will guide the intervention.
- Which of the following is not a commonly used method in intervention mapping?
- Scenario: Using needs assessment data from local church members of several denominations, you have identified obesity and diabetes as key concerns. You have created a coalition of pastors and lay members who represent the participating churches. Together you have established goals and objectives for in-church educational interventions. Now it’s time to select a theory or theoretical constructs to guide the intervention. Which of the following theories would be least likely to serve your purposes?
- Which of the following is not a planning element of a logic model?
- Use of single theories or theoretical constructs to guide community health interventions is easier and more effective than using multiple theories or constructs.
- Cues to action and self-efficacy are two theoretical constructs that are commonly used at the community level of the social ecological framework.
- Intervention mapping specifies that change must occur at three or more of the following four levels to be lasting: 1) interpersonal, 2) organizational, 3) community and 4) policy.
- Identify the “target” of the following objective: “getting a mammogram in the next 6 months at the women’s health clinic.”
- Index items are typically heterogeneous and not necessarily correlated with each other.
- There are several aspects of constructs that will affect the way in which they can be measured. Which statement is not true?
- Measuring a rural vs. urban community is what type of variable?
- A theoretical definition of a construct is simply the way in which a particular construct will be measured in a study.
- Which is NOT one of the ways you can evaluate the reliability of a measure?
- Fahrenheit and Celsius measures are considered interval measurements.
- Construct validity refers to
- Karl Pearson is credited with founding the study of measurement of individuals and is referred to as the father of
- Likert’s technique is probably the most common form of scale measurement used in the social sciences today
- Qualitative variables often involve an ordering of values which represent differing amounts, frequencies or degrees.
- Sex, Race/Ethnicity, Marital Status, HIV Status are types of _____ measurements.
- The categories for nominal measurements must be mutually exclusive and exhaustive.
- Both summative and formative evaluations are appropriate at all stages of program development.
- The SMART objectives include all the following EXCEPT:
- Which of the following is not a step to effective evaluation?
- Henry L. Gantt developed a pictorial system for planning and task allocation.
- The S in SMART (objective) stands for “Specific.”
- You utilize SMART in creating:
- The research methodology tailored for the evaluation of a specific program can easily be applied for the evaluation of another program.
- When monitoring a study over time, you are performing what kind of evaluation?
- Program Evaluation is a program activity, not scientific research.
- Moderating and mediating variables affect other variables in the same way.
- Cost-benefit analysis measures:
- Impact evaluation and outcome evaluation are synonymous.
- Formative research occurs:
