  • Title: A system for evaluating the use of media in CDC's National AIDS Information and Education Program.
    Author: Salmon CT, Jason J.
    Journal: Public Health Rep; 1991; 106(6):639-45. PubMed ID: 1659710.
    Abstract:
    The National AIDS Information and Education Program (NAIEP) commissioned the National Academy of Sciences to design a prototypical system of research for use in the evaluation of the agency's media campaign. It consists of four types of evaluation: formative, efficacy, process, and outcome. These types of evaluations are used to answer such questions as the following: What message strategies will work best? Can a campaign under optimal conditions be expected to make a difference? What interventions are actually delivered during the campaign? Has the campaign actually had an impact? How NAIEP has used the system and adapted it during 1 year of research activities is outlined, and examples from a variety of other social marketing programs are described.
