Improving health promotion programs requires practical tools. The Preffi instrument (Prevention and Promotion Funding and Effectiveness Instrument) offers guidelines to assess project effectiveness, integrating scientific insights with practical application for better program quality.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Promotion
  • Program Evaluation

Background:

  • Meta-studies reveal significant room for improvement in health promotion program quality.
  • Research insights are often not translated into practice, hindering effective health promotion.
  • Practitioners and policymakers struggle to evaluate research due to lack of contextual information and conflicting findings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development of the Preffi 2.0 instrument, a guideline set for assessing health promotion and prevention project effectiveness.
  • To detail the systematic, seven-step development process involving close collaboration between scientists and practitioners.
  • To present the Preffi model, its scoring method, and its application as a quality assurance tool.

Main Methods:
