CORE MEASURES SURVEY

THE PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT OF 1995

Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 5 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.



Instructions to Evaluator



This document contains eight survey questions to be asked of study participants as part of your impact evaluation. These questions are selected from the broader set of performance measures for the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP). These eight questions are to be measured as part of all impact evaluations of teen pregnancy prevention programs funded by the Family Youth Services Board of the Administration of Children & Families. The eight selected questions ask about youth sexual behaviors and protective factors.

Grantees are to collect youth responses on these measures at four survey waves: baseline, immediate post-program, short-term follow-up, and long-term follow-up. These measures will be part of the PREP performance measures entry (baseline) survey and will be administered to youth as part of that instrument. However, they must be added to the local evaluation’s three post-intervention surveys (immediate post-program, short-term follow-up, and long-term follow-up) using the exact wording below. In addition to the language for the eight questions, this document also contains suggested language for instructions to youth that can be incorporated into local survey instruments.

While the wording of each item must be preserved, you can insert each question into the survey in a way that best maintains the flow of the rest of the local survey. The questions as presented below include skip logic to direct youth to answer only those questions that are appropriate given their reported sexual experience. When inserting these items into your local evaluation surveys, you should adjust the skip logic to maintain the intended references.
