When evaluating a program aiming to investigate the relationship between place attachment and a perceived sense of belonging for a family, here are five indicators that can be used:
1. Emotional connection: Measure the emotional connection between the family and the place. This can be assessed through indicators such as participants' self-reported feelings of attachment, love, and comfort towards the place, as well as their emotional responses and expressions when interacting with or discussing the place.
2. Sense of ownership and identity: Evaluate the family's sense of ownership and identity associated with the place. This can be measured through indicators such as participants' identification with the place as an integral part of their family identity, their sense of pride and responsibility towards the place, and their willingness to invest time and effort in maintaining and caring for it.
3. Engagement and participation: Assess the level of engagement and participation of the family members in activities related to the place. This can be evaluated through indicators such as the frequency of family visits or interactions with the place, the range and diversity of activities participated in, and the depth of involvement in community or collective efforts related to the place.
4. Social connections and networks: Measure the impact of the place on the family's social connections and networks. This can be assessed through indicators such as the presence of social relationships and networks developed through the place, the strength and quality of those connections, and the sense of community and support derived from the interactions with other individuals or families associated with the place.
5. Perceived sense of belonging: Evaluate the family's perceived sense of belonging to the place and its surrounding community. This can be measured through self-reported indicators such as participants' feelings of acceptance, inclusion, and integration within the place, as well as their sense of being valued and respected by others in the community.

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?
