According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this collection is 0970-0356; this number is valid through 6/30/2021.  Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 30 hours, including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, reviewing the collection of information, and revising it. This collection of information is voluntary for individuals, but the information is required from Grantees.

VIII. Appendices

  1. Logic Model (or Theory of Change) for the program

  2. Data and Study Sample. First, provide details about data collection for the implementation study (see Table B.1 in the table shells document). Italicized text in the table are examples for expository purposes. The purpose of this table is to enable the reader to understand the data collected for the implementation analysis. Consider adding benchmarks for sufficient attendance or quality. Second, provide detailed descriptions of methods used to analyze the implementation data. Third, describe the data sources for the impact study (See Table B.2 in the templates document). Finally, include the final CONSORT diagram, which is referenced in Section IV.A of your report (see page 10 of the instructions document).

  3. Attrition Rates and Baseline Equivalence of the RCT Design. For studies that were originally an RCT but had to construct equivalent groups using a QED, describe the original RCT design, attrition rates, and baseline equivalence (see Appendix C in the table templates document). For QEDs and RCTs that had to construct equivalent groups, please describe the approach to constructing equivalent groups in this appendix.

  4. Data Preparation. Methods used to clean and prepare data (including descriptions of how missing and inconsistent data were handled)

  5. Impact Estimation. Include model specifications (equations) used in the assessment of baseline equivalence and program impacts.

  6. Sensitivity Analyses and Alternative Model Specifications

  7. Additional Analyses. Include additional impact analyses, exploratory analyses, alternate approaches to missing data, subgroup and moderator analyses, mediated analyses.
