The effectiveness of family planning programs evaluated with true experimental designs.

OBJECTIVES: This paper describes the magnitude of effects for family planning programs evaluated with true experimental designs. METHODS: Studies that used true experimental designs to evaluate family planning programs were identified and their results subjected to meta-analysis. RESULTS: For the 14 studies with the information needed to calculate effect size, the Pearson r between program and effect variables ranged from -.08 to .09 and averaged .08. CONCLUSIONS: The programs evaluated in the studies considered have had, on average, smaller effects than many would assume and desire.

Evaluating family planning program effectiveness and efficiency.

This article proposes an integrated in-house evaluation model for family planning programs. The model is designed to meet the need of program management for an operational and internal evaluation system suited to the ongoing character of program activities and focused on the feedback of information for program planning. The ideas presented are applied to the context of the Albany County Family Planning Service, Inc., Wyoming.

Improving management through evaluation: techniques and strategies for family planning programs.

Evaluation aimed at providing managers with the information needed for day-to-day decision making has generally received less emphasis in family planning programs than evaluation of long-term programmatic and demographic achievements. A series of evaluation techniques are reviewed that are applicable to the key management areas of operational target setting, administrative monitoring, measuring interim achievements, and cost concerns. Barriers to such evaluation inherent in the training of and relationship between managers and evaluators are reviewed, and means to ease the barriers are proposed.
