Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. Objectives are specific results or effects of a program’s activities that must be achieved in pursuing the program’s ultimate goals. 2. Formula evaluation refers to assessment of the effects of the program on clients while they are in the program. 3. Correctional objectives involve that an agency’s evaluative process allows for an outside person (whether an auditor, an evaluator, or the public at large) to have full view of the agency’s operations, budgeting, policies, procedures, and outcomes. In transparent agencies, there are no secrets, and confidential information is only authorized when ethical or legal requirements mandate that the information not be transparent. 4. Outcome evaluations involve quantitative research aimed at assessing the impact of the program on long-term treatment outcomes. 5. Articulated goals not only help crystallize the agency’s philosophical orientation on the supervision process but also provide for more measurable constructs that lend themselves to effective evaluation.
