Giesen, Martin J.; Cavenaugh, Brenda S. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2006
Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA) requires that independent living programs annually report demographic information on consumers receiving services and the numbers receiving specific types of services. Although some states collect information on consumer outcomes (for example, improvement in daily living skills), RSA does not request…

Mancini, Jay A.; Marek, Lydia I. – Family Relations, 2004
A conceptual model for evaluating community-based program sustainability is presented, along with a 53-item Program Sustainability Index (PSI). Structural equation modeling (SEM) and principal axis factor analysis indicate strong support for each of the seven elements of the PSI. When considered as an overall model, six of the seven framework…

Borman, Kathryn; Boydston, Theodore; Kang, Ellen; Katzenmeyer, William G.; Kersiant, Gladis; Lee, Reginald; Mehta, Nikhil; Moriarty, Karen O. – 2002
This paper describes the data sources and method used in conducting a 3-year evaluation of the Urban Systemic Initiative (USI) of the National Science Foundation in four cities. The paper also provides a discussion of two approaches to analyzing the evaluation results: structural equation modeling (SEM) and a complementary analysis of the…

Lennox, Richard D.; Dennis, Michael L. – Evaluation and Program Planning, 1994
Potential methods are explored for removing or otherwise controlling random measurement error, assessment artifacts, irrelevant variation in outcome measures, and confounding sources of covariation in a structural equations model. Using examples with measures of quality of life and functioning, the authors consider these methods for field…

Wu, Ping; Campbell, Donald T. – Evaluation and Program Planning, 1996
Structural equation models reanalyzed data from the 1969 Westinghouse Head Start evaluation and extended the analysis to blacks and full-year programs. Results showed that the selection bias for summer program whites was absent for blacks and full-year program whites, and that Head Start helped the most disadvantaged children. (SLD)

Forgatch, Marion S.; DeGarmo, David S.; Beldavs, Zintars G. – Behavior Therapy, 2005
This article evaluates the efficacy of the Oregon model of Parent Management Training (PMTO) in the stepfamily context. Sixty-seven of 110 participants in the Marriage and Parenting in Stepfamilies (MAPS) program received a PMTO-based intervention. Participants in the randomly assigned experimental group displayed a large effect in benefits to…
