The PSS-Fa is a one-dimensional measure of "the extent to which an individual perceives his/her needs for support, information, and feedback are fulfilled by family". Scores on this scale are computed so that responses indicative of perceived social support are scored as +1. Scores can, therefore, range from 0 (indicating no perceived social support) to 20 (indicating maximum perceived social support). The "Don't know" category is not scored.

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?
