社区所有权的发展通常被认为是社区健康教育计划的一个重要中间目标。社区所有权被认为对于计划的有效性和长期维护很重要,但这种结构的有效措施尚未可用于检验这一主张。制定并测试了社区领袖对健康教育计划的所有权认知的衡量标准。社区所有权量表确定了项目中的关键职能,并要求社区领导者对领导者本身、外部赞助机构和当地项目工作人员在每个领域的控制程度进行评级。该措施在三个社区健康教育项目的志愿者领导下进行了测试。对分数的预测是基于所有权结构所衍生的概念框架。这些测试的结果与预测一致,为该措施的有效性提供了证据。子量表分数显示出高水平的内部一致性可靠性。这一措施可以应用于项目生命周期的不同阶段,以监测促进社区所有权的努力是否成功,并测试感知所有权与项目有效性和维护之间的关系。
Development of community ownership is often identified as an important intermediate objective of community health education programs. Community ownership is assumed to be important to program effectiveness and long-term maintenance, but validated measures of this construct have not been available to test this proposition. A measure of community leaders' perceived ownership of health education programs was developed and tested. The Community Ownership Scale identified key functions within a program and asked community leaders to rate the amount of control the leaders themselves, the external sponsoring agency and the local program staff had in each area. The measure was tested with the volunteer leadership of three community health education programs. Predictions about scores were based on the conceptual framework from which the ownership construct was derived. Results of these tests were consistent with predictions, providing evidence for the validity of the measure. Subscale scores showed high levels of internal consistency reliability. This measure could be applied at different stages in the life of a program to monitor the success of efforts to foster community ownership, and to test the relationships between perceived ownership and program effectiveness and maintenance.
