Could you provide a more precise definition of randomized experiments in light of the prior post? I still have trouble telling it apart from other designs.

As is common knowledge, a CSSA applicant must pass both the asset and income tests. Can the two tests be seen as resources or activities when using the logical model?

Integrated Employment Assistance Programme for Self-reliance (IEAPS) statistics are being read by me. And I discovered that between April 1, 2017, and March 31, 2020, 25% of service receivers had found job or had gone back to regular education for at least one month. Then, may I declare that it is a software output?

Hello. I have a very hard time telling the difference between actions and results (maybe this is just me).

Could you please explain the output concept? For instance, are the annual CSSA receipts counted as an output or an outcome?

I work in the area of programs to reduce poverty, as I mentioned in the last piece. Can we also use the logic model to the evaluation process?

Hello. In MEL’s sharing session, the phrase “logic model” was spoken, but I wasn’t able to understand it fully. Would you kindly explain what that means to me?
