Knowledge Base Design Knowledge Item 02: Results from HRSA/HAB's SPNS Innovative Models of Care

Knowledge Item: CA-Knowledge Base-02
Coming Attractions

A very tentative schedule for the growth of this Knowledge Base has been projected and is presented in the Extended Results section. The Knowledge Base will continue to grow as additional descriptive and correlational analyses of psychosocial and medical services are added. Knowledge Items related to medical and psychosocial services outcomes will also be added. Statistical studies on program retention, longer term outcomes, and predictors (determinants) will be added. Additionally, results specific to one, or a few, projects will expand the Knowledge Base. As time progresses, many of the initial results will be expanded using more sophisticated statistical modeling methods.

This Knowledge Base will be continuously expanding through at least May 31, 2001. Please check back for updated and expanded results.
