This title offers a detailed exploration of action research, emphasizing the importance of evaluation in the context of social action programs. Guided by Kurt Lewin’s philosophy that research should yield practical results rather than merely produce academic texts, this book examines the research conducted from 1955 to 1959 on the Encampment for Citizenship, a program aimed at fostering civic engagement and character education among youth.The authors present the book as a resource for those engaged in character education and other youth-focused initiatives, showing how structured evaluations can inform and improve program outcomes. They discuss the complexities of evaluating social action programs, including the development of methodologies, the testing of evaluation instruments over time, and the comparative analysis of different research designs. By focusing on both the successes and challenges encountered, the book aims to contribute to the field by providing a replicable framework for evaluating similar programs, highlighting the practical alignment of research with social impact goals.This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1962.

This book is developed around a rational planning process of six steps required to develop a strategic plan for health services. Following an overview chapter that identifies the need for this text and how it differs from previous health planning texts, each succeeding chapter is devoted to one step in the process. Methods and techniques are provided that can help practitioners carry out the steps. Where feasible, the reader learns how to use these methods and how to identify their strengths and weaknesses. In an era of stiff competition among health service agencies and hospitals, practitioners who use the methods described will have a distinct advantage over those administrators who do not. In the fast developing and dynamic field of health care, past experiences are no longer the best barometer of what a health agency ought to do in the future. There is no longer any stability in the health service field. Consequently, program administrators and/or their planning/marketing directors do need a guide to insure they obtain better results from their efforts.
