A small-scale randomized efficacy trial of Carescapes
The Implications of Bank-Issued Check Surveys for Evaluators
This article describes an innovative data collection procedure. A subsample ( n = 164) of a longitudinal research project was assessed using a bank-issued check survey procedure (a removable bank check on which response fields were printed). Using the new procedure, parents returned their surveys simply by depositing or cashing their incentive checks at the bank. Evaluators found that using this format and minimal follow-up achieved a response ra…

The economic evaluation of psychosocial interventions is a growing area of research. Though time costs are central to the economist's understanding of social costs, these costs generally have been ignored by prevention scientists.

It then considers the specific time costs that often arise in interventions designed to reduce behav…
