Title: | Subjective outcome evaluation and factors related to perceived effectiveness of the Project P.A.T.H.S. in Hong Kong | Authors: | Shek, DTL Yu, L Ho, VYT |
Issue Date: | 2012 | Source: | The scientific world journal, 2012, v. 2012, 490290, p. 1-10 | Abstract: | Based on a sample of 24,457 participated students, the present study investigated participants' subjective evaluation of the Tier 2 Program of the Project P.A.T.H.S. in the 2009/2010 academic year. Participants generally held positive views toward the Tier 2 Program and program instructor and perceived the program to be beneficial to their development. Programs involving adolescents alone were evaluated more positively than programs involving parents and/or teachers. Students' grade and program type did not show significant impact on participants' subjective evaluation of the project. Consistent with previous reports, perceived effectiveness of the program was significantly predicted by students' perceptions about the program and program instructor. These findings provide further support that the Tier 2 Program is effective in promoting positive development among adolescents with greater psychosocial needs. | Keywords: | Adolescent Adolescent development Program evaluation |
