Strengthening the evidence base for health promotion

McQueen, D. V.·2001·Health Promotion International

Abstract

This paper describes the evidence debate from the many players currently attempting to define best practices in health promotion. Expert opinions on the purpose of collecting evidence range from those who view evidence as a western notion of little use in the developing world to those who choose to focus on opportunities to demonstrate the effectiveness of health promotion. There is also much disagreement on what constitutes evidence. Some view evidence as strict outcomes of randomized clinical trials (RCT) and others place greater value on other unpublished sources, not traditionally viewed as valuable information. A challenge for health promotion in the new century is to foster and develop high quality, widely recognized and acceptable standards for evidence-based evaluation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
