WHAT WE DO
EVALUATION DESIGN
We develop customized evaluation designs to fit the specific goals, timelines, and budgets of our clients —there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. We work with clients to define clear research questions, develop the most appropriate data collection tools, and ensure that the results will be useful to stakeholders.
SURVEY DEVELOPMENT
Creating a survey may seem simple, but there is actually a lot of science and expertise that goes into the development of a valid and reliable survey. TrueScore has extensive experience developing surveys and tests to measure changes in knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviors of target populations.
INTERVIEWS & FOCUS GROUPS
We often use qualitative methods such as interviews and focus groups to gather richer and more nuanced information from a smaller group of program participants. We structure conversations so that they yield useful information aligned to research questions.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
TrueScore consultants have expertise in a broad range of statistical methods for analyzing quantitative data collected through surveys, tests, or administrative records. We summarize results using concise language and graphics.
LOGIC MODELS & THEORIES OF CHANGE
Sometimes organizations need to reconnect with their strategic goals and desired outcomes. We are skilled in the development of logic models and theories of change--essential tools used to graphically depict program inputs, outputs, and desired outcomes. These models are highly useful for planning a new program or evaluating an existing one.
REPORT WRITING
We have published numerous research reports, literature reviews, committee reports, brochures, opinion columns, presentations, and executive summaries. We specialize in taking technical research methods and findings, and explaining them clearly to policy makers, the media, or the public. In other cases, our evaluation reports have been written specifically for program staff or funders, and are not available to the public.
