提出了一个评估社区项目可持续性的概念模型，以及一个由53个项目组成的项目可持续性指数(PSI)。结构方程模型和主轴因子分析表明，PSI的七个要素中的每一个都得到了强有力的支持。在作为总体模式审议时，保留了七个框架要素中的六个。每个子量表的内部一致性是可以接受的，当子量表与中期项目结果进行对比时，表现出可接受的效度。这些发现是关于下一步计划可持续性的概念化和测量，以及对规划和实施以社区为基础的家庭计划的启示。
A conceptual model for evaluating community-based program sustainability is presented, along with a 53-item Program Sustainability Index (PSI). Structural equation modeling (SEM) and principal axis factor analysis indicate strong support for each of the seven elements of the PSI. When considered as an overall model, six of the seven framework elements were retained. Internal consistency for each subscale was acceptable, and acceptable performance validity was demonstrated when the subscales were contrasted with middle-range program results. These findings are discussed with regard to next steps in the conceptualization and measurement of program sustainability, as well as implications for planning and implementing community based programs for families.
