Q5. Have you identified aims for your intervention?
Q5 a. What and who do you hope to change by your intervention?
Your aim should relate to a measurable outcome, e.g. Your aim could be to reduce the number of parents (the who) stopping on zig-zag lines outside primary schools (the what), or to increase rear seat belt wearing (the what) by under 25 year old passengers (the who).
Q5 b. By when do you hope to achieve your aim(s)?
E.g. A reduction in the number of parent driven vehicles stopping on zig-zag lines outside primary schools by July 2011.
Q6. Have you identified objectives for your intervention?
Q6 a. Please state your objectives.
Your objectives are the 'how' of your intervention (how you intend to achieve your aims)

Q9. Approximately how many people will be exposed to your intervention?
1000 16-18year olds attended a workshop on seatbelt wearing. (Please enter number).

Q11. Start date of the intervention:
Q12. End date of the intervention:
Q13. What do you expect the total financial cost of the intervention to be?

Q15. What stage are you at in planning your intervention?
Please select one:
- Planning
- Planning but not delivered
- Delivering
- Delivered
Q16. How do you intend to measure progress towards your aim?
You can select more than one
- Monitoring Indicator
- Short-term Outcome
- Long-term Outcome
Q16 (1a). Please describe what you would like to monitor?
E.g. Number of parents who return a slip to say that they have received and read the leaflet.
Q16 (2a). What short-term outcome(s) would you like to measure?
You may choose more than one
- Knowledge (has your audience learned anything?)
- Attitudes (have the audience’s attitudes changed?)
- Intended behaviour (do the audience plan on acting differently in the future?)
- Other
Q16 (2b). How will your short-term outcome measure(s) demonstrate if you have met your objectives?
E.g. Measuring parent's knowledge about the reasons why they should not stop on zig-zags will demonstrate whether the objective to raise awareness of these reasons has been met.
Q16 (2c). Will you collect any before measurements of your short-term outcome?
E.g. Before they received the leaflet, how much did parents know about the reasons for not stopping on the zig-zags? Even if you are currently delivering or have already delivered the intervention you can still collect some form of before measurement.
Q16 (2d). By how much do you hope to change the situation you are measuring in the short-term outcome?
E.g. An increase from 60% to 90% in parent knowledge on the reasons for not stopping on the zig-zags.
Q16 (3a). What long-term outcome(s) would you like to measure?
You may choose more than one
- Knowledge (has your audience learned anything?)
- Attitudes (have the audience’s attitudes changed?)
- Intended behaviour (do the audience plan on acting differently in the future?)
- Other
Q16 (3b). Will you collect any before measurements of your long-term outcome?
E.g. Before they received the leaflet, how many parents were stopping on zig-zags? Even if you are currently delivering or have already delivered the intervention you can still collect some form of before measurement.
Q16 (3c). By how much do you hope to change the long-term outcome you are measuring?
E.g. The number of cars stopping on the zig-zags between 8 and 9 am and 3 and 4 pm, will decrease by 50%.
