Comment: Evaluating Teenage Risk-Taking Modification Programs: A Proposal to Design a General Evaluation Strategy, with Special Attention to the Best Friends Program
This grant supports the development of a research strategy for rigorous evaluations of programs designed to reduce adolescent pregnancy by encouraging abstinence. Researchers will undertake a five-month examination of existing studies and alternative evaluation methods that might be employed to measure the effectiveness of abstinence programs, including the school-based Best Friends program. The project will result in a design report detailing what is known about these types of programs, possible outcome measures, and appropriate sampling and data collection methods.
