Based on the design of general layout and transportation optimization of a variety of factors, established a program evaluation system, the theory of fuzzy mathematics general layout and transportation design a comprehensive evaluation. For the fuzzy weight of each factor to determine the application of an objective method of empowerment from the perspective of information entropy to determine the factors enabling the weight of each evaluation index, fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of the results obtained.

Abstract Background One of the effective strategies to prevent and control Non- communicable diseases risk factors is to identify priorities and problems of Non-communicable programs. this study was conducted to identify the challenges of non-communicable diseases programs in order to improve programs development. Methods This study was a qualitative study which was carried out in 5 universities of medical sciences and the Ministry of Health in 2019 year. The sampling method was purposive and the participants include specialists in the field of NCD who have executive and research experience in this field. Data were collected through 40 individual interviews with health professionals and care providers. Data were analyzed by content analysis using CIPP model. Results In the present study, problems of non-communicable disease programs were identified in 4 main categories, 12 sub-categories including inadequate participation of all levels of service delivery in program development, needs assessment, budget allocation, data and program evaluation system. Conclusions Some problems of non-communicable diseases programs included inadequacy of needs assessment, lack of prioritization based on local and regional conditions, program evaluation system. Paying attention to the mentioned points will help to solve underlying problems and improve the processes of developing, implementing and evaluating programs.

Item Scores

Life skills can be viewed as those skills considered essential for effective living. Therefore, significant deficiencies in life skills (e.g., use of public transportation) as well as deficiencies in vocational skills must be addressed through rehabilitation services if desired vocational rehabilitation goals are to be achieved. Consequently, assessment of pre to post changes in the life skills of consumers of rehabilitation services can be viewed as a relevant component of any rehabilitation program evaluation model. This paper reported the development of the Life Skills Inventory (LSI) as one component measure of a multidimensional program evaluation system. Factor analysis results indicated a five-factor solution for the LSI (general employability skills, work-related communication skills, self-direction skills, work tolerance skills, and self-care skills) to be optimal both in terms of parsimony and interpretability, providing empirical evidence for its factorial structure. Cluster analysis, to identify clusters of participants on the basis of their mean item scores on each of the LSI factors, revealed three different subgroup LSI profiles. These groups were subsequently compared on their self-reported quality of life in order to further investigate the construct validity of the LSI. Applications of the LSI within the framework of a multidimensional program evaluation system were discussed.

The nature and tradition of campus recreational services stresses the importance of recreation staff evaluating their programs. The increasing diversity among college students and the escalating expectations of campus patrons, donors, and accrediting bodies have required campus recreation professionals to increase their foci on standards and benchmarks of practice and outcomes of services. While most campus recreation programs engage in some form of evaluation, very few have invested in the development of a comprehensive evaluation system that critically reviews program outcomes. Outcome evaluation is accomplished with careful planning and attention, similar to many other operational systems and activities such as risk management or budgeting. The result can be useful information that can position the campus recreation program for more growth as well as increased integrity across campus. The purpose of this article is to introduce the growing need for comprehensive program evaluation in campus recreational services. In addition, this article will present a case report on establishing direction for evaluation. Recommended actions by the campus recreation staff for establishing comprehensive evaluation plans are also discussed.
