John needs to evaluate an annual safety training program that all lab technicians in his company are required to complete. John intends to conduct a system-focused evaluation rather than an intervention-focused evaluation. Select all questions that are appropriate to be investigated in his evaluation.

a. Is the program properly designed to promote safety awareness and behavioral change?
b. How well are the lab technicians following the safety guidelines?
c. Have the lab technicians’ safety requirements changed since the safety training program was developed?
d. How well does the organization’s feedback system reinforce the lab technicians’ safety behaviors?
e. Have there been any unexpected positive or negative outcomes since the lab technicians completed the safety training program?

d. How well does the organization’s feedback system reinforce the lab technicians’ safety behaviors?
e. Have there been any unexpected positive or negative outcomes since the lab technicians completed the safety training program?

All of them can be investigated during a system-focused evaluation, since those questions address either intervention-specific factors (a, and b) or environment-focused factors (c, d, and e). An intervention-focused evaluation may focus on questions such as a and b and overlook questions such as c, d, and e.
