Strength of Evidence Sample Clauses

Strength of Evidence. Panelists should evaluate each proposal based on the type of project – either causal or feasibility. The project narrative must contain a clear statement of the type of project proposed. This must include evaluating the information in the proposals about any existing evidence for the proposed intervention, as well as the level of each proposal’s claims of exiting causal evidence and/or ability to generate causal evidence based on the evaluation design. The panelists should refer to the criteria from the CLEAR, WWC, the Pathways to Work Evidence Clearinghouse, and other similar clearinghouses. (Refer to Section IV.B.ii.3.a.ii for more information on the clearinghouses.) All proposals, whether causal or feasibility, must include information about any evidence ratings assigned to similar interventions and evaluation methods by relevant clearinghouses regarding the causal impact or potential identification of causal impacts of the proposed intervention. If the proposed project builds on any prior research that a clearinghouse has previously reviewed and rated, such information should be included in the project narrative. For proposed projects that do not build on research that a clearinghouse has previously reviewed and rated, the project narrative should include information about the rating the project would likely receive under the clearinghouses’ criteria based on their design. For causal studies, panelists should refer to the evidence ratings assigned to similar interventions or interventions using similar evaluation methods by relevant clearinghouses regarding the causal impact of the proposal intervention. For feasibility studies, panelists should refer to the guidelines from the clearinghouses for high quality non-causal research and evaluation methods. Panelists will award points for evidence based on previous interventions, interventions similar to the proposed intervention that were shown to produce the desired outcomes as a direct result of the intervention and not as a result of other factors, or interventions designed to produce strong causal evidence.
