Output
This type of test compares the average of two groups of data to assess whether they are statistically different
T-test
This type of qualitative coding starts with specific observations and data, then develops theories or generalizations based on those findings
Grounded theory
This type of evaluation is used to identify, measure value, and compare interventions based on cost and outcomes and supports decision-making, particularly when resources are limited
Economic Evaluation
This step is the fourth step in the evaluation framework process involves interpreting the data and determining the significance of the findings
