Intervention Effectiveness Research: Quality Improvement and Program Evaluation

Abstract

Dissemination of the project findings is essential as a contribution to knowledge about intervention effectiveness, quality improvement, and program evaluation in the real world. Some might even say if you don’t publish, it wasn’t done. The goal of this chapter is to guide the development of abstracts and manuscripts based on Worksheets completed in Part II. A step-by-step process is proposed to elicit the important findings and their implications, prepare the results based on those findings, and then compile the existing statements and details to complete the abstract or manuscript. Several suggestions are provided to support successful dissemination.
