Hi there. I am trying to construct specific evaluation questions for my service. It is about providing mutual group support to young people with longer-term back pain. Through the program evaluation, I hope I could understand how successful the service was in achieving the short- and medium-term outcomes. Could you give me some suggestions?

I may recommend you with an example instead. You could search the paper . As its title suggested, the authors further developed five specific evaluation questions: (1) What are the current usage trends of Bro Online?; (2) To what extent have Bro Online members included safe sex slogans on their profiles?; (3) What is the extent of Bro Online members’ knowledge of high-risk behavior and how to reduce risk?; (4) To what extent do Bro Online members have better access to condoms?; and (5) To what extent is Bro Online a social space with a norm of condom use? Such specific evaluation questions would lead to the more clear logic of conducting the evaluation.

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?
