Structuring policy development for consumer health education

American Journal of Public Health, 1978, vol. 68, issue 6, 596-597

Abstract: The United States of America faces a familiar policy dilemma with respect to consumer health promotion and education. New national initiatives in health education have emerged, yet evaluation data to inform the policy development process are rather limited. A recent survey identified health education evaluation efforts through a literature review, consultations with technical experts, and extensive discussions with health education evaluators themselves. It deliberately sought out and studied those programs in which strong evaluation was believed to exist. The authors discuss this survey.
