For most survey-based outcomes, evaluations typically need data from 20 to 100 patients per practice to be confident that they can detect a meaningful effect. Collecting survey data from more patients might increase the precision of estimates of a practice’s average outcome for its own patients, but it will only slightly improve the precision of the estimated effect for the intervention as a whole (that is, increase your ability to detect a small effect).

Hello, Dr. Mel Could I ask another query regarding CSO? The CSO program may only be used as a form of discipline, I wonder.

Could you perhaps assist me in getting some information about the community service orders (CSO) program verified? According to what I’ve heard, a court may issue a CSO order requiring a person who has reached the age of 14 or older and has been found guilty of a crime carrying a sentence of imprisonment to perform unpaid work for a number of hours up to 240 hours per month while being supervised by a probation officer. Can I refer to those as CSO scheme activities?

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?
