Evaluating the relationship involves:
1. Multi-scale measurement: Use validated tools (e.g., General Self-Efficacy Scale, Social Support Rating Scale, Internet Addiction Test) to quantify self-efficacy, perceived support, and addiction symptoms in adolescents.
2. Structural equation modeling (SEM): Test direct/indirect effects: whether low self-efficacy and social support correlate with higher addiction, and if support buffers self-efficacy’s impact, controlling for age, gender, or family environment.
3. Longitudinal data analysis: Track participants over 6–12 months to analyze how changes in self-efficacy/support predict addiction severity, distinguishing correlation from causation via time-lagged variables.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
