Title: | Quantitative evaluation of the revised training program Project P.A.T.H.S. in Hong Kong | Authors: | Shek, DTL Wu, FKY |
Issue Date: | Sep-2012 | Source: | International journal of adolescent medicine and health, Sept. 2012, v. 24, no. 3, p. 267-272 | Abstract: | In the extension phase of Project P.A.T.H.S. (Positive Adolescent Training through Holistic Social Programmes) in Hong Kong, potential implementers received 20 h of training (7 h of e-learning and 13 h of interactive training). Subjective outcome evaluation was conducted to evaluate the training workshops conducted in the first year of the extension phase based on the responses of 812 participants. The subjective outcome evaluation form was found to be internally consistent. Percentage findings showed that the respondents had favorable perceptions of the training program including its content, trainers, participants themselves and arrangements. The participants also felt that they had acquired knowledge, positive attitudes and skills related to the implementation of the program. The findings showed that the revised training program was effective in helping the participants to acquire the necessary knowledge, attitudes, and skills in the implementation of the program. | Keywords: | Positive youth development Project P.A.T.H.S.
