Concept mapping effectively developed a logic model for a national program by engaging diverse stakeholders. This method visually represents program relationships and expectations, proving beneficial for future evaluation planning.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health Program Evaluation
  • Systems Thinking in Public Health
  • Stakeholder Engagement Methodologies

Background:

  • Concept mapping visually structures relationships between ideas.
  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Prevention Research Centers Program (PRC Program) has diverse national stakeholders.
  • No prior studies utilized concept mapping for national program logic model development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a logic model for the PRC Program using concept mapping.
  • To visually represent the program's purpose, function, and stakeholder-defined relationships.
  • To establish a shared understanding and expectations for the national program.

Main Methods:

  • Concept mapping involved three phases: question development, stakeholder input gathering (145 national, 135 local), and statistical analysis for map generation.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Two logic models (national and local) were constructed using concept mapping data and program documents.
  • Logic models were refined through stakeholder feedback at meetings and via a structured tool.

    • Main Results:

    • Generated national (9 clusters, 88 statements) and local (11 clusters, 75 statements) concept maps.
    • Categorized map clusters into logic model components: inputs, activities, and outcomes.
    • Finalized a single, comprehensive logic model for the PRC Program based on stakeholder feedback.

    Conclusions:

    • Concept mapping is a valuable tool for logic model development, establishing a common program view.
    • The developed logic model is stakeholder-informed, meaningful, and sets clear program expectations.
    • The employed concept mapping methodology can benefit other programs in evaluation planning.
