Needs assessment is used to determine whether the target population needs, understands, and accepts the proposed program elements.
Process evaluation determines whether program activities have been implemented as intended and resulted in certain outputs.
Outcome evaluation measures the program's effects on the target population by assessing the progress in the outcomes that the program is to address.
Efficiency evaluation measures what resources are being used and their costs compared to outcomes from a cost-benefit perspective.

If the measurement is tedious, those with physical limitations who are recruited for the survey may feel awkward. What kind of error would then happen?

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?
