Knowledge Item: CA-Knowledge Base-02
Continuing Schedule for the Development
of Knowledge Items: October 1998
The following is a very
tentative schedule. Note that the development of analyses
and Knowledge Items must follow a fairly invariant sequence in order to be comprehensive,
maximally valid, and optimally efficient as an overall process.
| Stage |
Likely Additions to Knowledge Base at The Measurement
Group |
| 1 |
- Additional Knowledge Items on the frequency and co-occurrence patterns of psychosocial
services, quality of life, self-reported use of services, client
characteristics, needs
and barriers
- Additional Knowledge Items on the frequency and co-occurrence patterns of training,
trainee characteristics, trainee reactions to training
- Additional scaling analyses and Knowledge Items on psychosocial services, quality of
life, self-reported use of services, client characteristics, needs and barriers
- Additional work and Knowledge Items on changes in quality of life, distress, barriers,
service satisfaction, self-rated service utilization, and determinants
- Knowledge Items on the expert observer ratings from the Comprehensive Healthcare Work
Group interviews
- Knowledge Items on the training outcomes from the Training-Infrastructure Work Group
interviews
- Knowledge Items from the Infrastructure-Advocacy report
- Knowledge Items generated from currently inactive projects
|
| 2 |
- Initial Knowledge Items on the frequency and co-occurrence patterns of medical services
and medical outcomes
- Initial scaling, reliability analyses and Knowledge Items on patterns of medical
services and medical outcomes
- Initial predictive analyses and Knowledge Items of
client characteristics, psychosocial
services, and outcomes
- Additional Knowledge Items and work on changes in quality of life, distress, barriers,
service satisfaction, self-rated service utilization, and determinants
- Refined analyses and additional Knowledge Items from Training Outcomes Interview study
- Refined analyses and additional Knowledge Items from Comprehensive Healthcare Interview
study
- Knowledge Items based on the Training-Infrastructure Work Group "vignettes"

| 3 |
- Additional Knowledge Items on the frequency and co-occurrence patterns of medical
services and medical outcomes

- Initial analyses and Knowledge Items on retention in psychosocial services and the
determinants of retention

determinants of retention

building
- Reassessment period 1: Look at how various Knowledge Items may need to be expanded,
refined, changed based on new data that have arrived in the data archive

- Project-specific analyses 1: With local project director and/or evaluator, prepare and
post Knowledge Items on project-specific issues
- Fill-in cross-cutting analyses and Knowledge Items deriving from what needs to be done
to further refine the work for the year to date
