Questions from this subtopic

Each one with the model answer underneath.

  1. 1

    What does it mean to evaluate a campaign?

    Model answer

    Evaluating a campaign means judging, against evidence, how far it achieved its stated objectives, why it did or did not, and what should be done differently.

  2. 2

    What is process evaluation?

    Model answer

    Process evaluation asks whether the campaign was delivered as planned — how many materials were distributed, how many people were reached, whether the events happened, and whether the partners did what was agreed.

  3. 3

    What is outcome evaluation?

    Model answer

    Outcome evaluation asks whether the intended change happened — whether knowledge, attitudes or behaviour shifted in the target group, and whether the objectives were met.

  4. 4

    What is impact evaluation?

    Model answer

    Impact evaluation asks about the longer-term effect on health itself, such as a change in a disease rate, which usually appears years after the campaign and is hardest to attribute to it.

  5. 5

    What evidence can be used to evaluate a campaign?

    Model answer

    Evidence includes surveys of awareness and attitudes before and after, calls to a helpline, website visits, appointments booked, sales or prescription data, uptake of a service, and qualitative feedback from the target group.

  6. 6

    Why is it difficult to attribute a change to a campaign?

    Model answer

    Other things change at the same time — price, the law, the season, the news — and there is usually no comparison group who saw nothing, so a change that follows the campaign cannot simply be assumed to have been caused by it.
