REPLICATION KIT PROGRAM ARCHIVES

REPLICATION KIT PROGRAM ARCHIVES are a Sociometrics' research-to-practice initiative aimed at assembling in one place—for public dissemination, distribution, and replication—outstanding prevention programs in key health areas. Programs were selected for archive inclusion based on their demonstrated salutory effect on risk-taking behaviors. These program archives have been designed to:

  • facilitate cost-effective replication of prevention programs that work,
  • eliminate wasted effort spent “reinventing the wheel” and
  • encourage ongoing scientific evaluation to ascertain the robustness of each program's effectiveness (or lack thereof) across different study populations.
 


PREVENTION PROGRAM PACKAGES. Sociometrics has developed a colorful package for each program included in the archives. Each program package contains everything needed to replicate or adapt the promising program:sample PASHA box

  1. a complete set of materials such as training manuals, curriculum guidebook, workbooks, videos, board game, etc.;
  2. a User's Guide (also available for purchase separately) prepared by archive staff describing the program/evaluation. The Guide also provides tips and guidelines for program implementation;
  3. an accompanying evaluation packet—with instructions, instruments, and scoring instructions—for assessing the effectiveness of the program; and
  4. a one-page packing slip listing the contents and describing the organization of the package.

NEW! The original evaluation instruments used by the program developers for each of the program packages are now available for download in PDF format. Once you select a program click on products for download to see the available instruments.
