Process evaluation is now a core component of health promotion program evaluations. Over the past decade, considerable attention and resources were devoted to developing sensitive and collaborative process evaluation methodologies. These efforts share the broad commitments that process evaluation should (a) support program goals and objectives, (b) lead to program improvement, and (c) whenever possible, develop evaluation capacity among participants. This article describes dialogue boxes, a process evaluation tool that has proven extremely useful in diverse health promotion program and planning efforts. The tool itself is described, along with eight lessons learned about the power of this seemingly simple evaluation method, comments about the challenges of this type of process evaluation, and tips for using dialogue boxes in health promotion planning and programs.
过程评估如今是健康促进项目评估的核心组成部分。在过去十年里,人们投入了大量的关注和资源来开发灵敏且具协作性的过程评估方法。这些努力都秉持着广泛的共识,即过程评估应(a)支持项目的目标,(b)促使项目改进,以及(c)尽可能地提升参与者的评估能力。本文介绍了对话框这一过程评估工具,该工具在各类健康促进项目及规划工作中已证明极为有用。文中不仅描述了该工具本身,还阐述了从这种看似简单的评估方法的作用中吸取的八点经验教训、有关此类过程评估所面临挑战的评论,以及在健康促进规划和项目中使用对话框的技巧。
