YDP Evaluation Manual

• YDP Measurement & Evaluation Manual

Measurement and evaluation plays an central role in the research mission of the Youth Development Project. This web page provides access to copies of  the core measures and procedures used for evaluating the impact of the Changing Lives Program on the young people with which we work.

The Core Measurement and Evaluation Battery and Manual¹ was developed for use in the Youth Development Project of the Adolescent and Adult Development Program, Child and Family Psychosocial Research Center, Department of Psychology, Florida International University, Miami, Florida, 33199. Any comments or suggestions regarding the material should be directed to William M. Kurtines at the above address. Because the core battery is still undergoing development and refinement, the contributors would appreciate receiving information with respect to any data or findings related to the use of the battery.
