This half-day tutorial is designed to offer a concise overview of the methodological issues for developing an effective system that measures the outcomes of applied health intervention programs. The tutorial will teach you how to perform a logical analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of outcomes research. Special emphasis is given to survey research and tips for survey construction. Next, you are invited to bring your own survey materials to the tutorial and engage in guided small-group sessions to evaluate them using the Survey Project Checklist. Finally, a critical review of outcome studies on relevant health topics is provided, including examples from ongoing programs at United HealthCare Corporation.
