Opportunity Description

Many evaluation outcomes and behavioral processes unfold over time, necessitating longitudinal evaluation designs. Spanning a week, month, year, or decades, longitudinal evaluation poses a host of methodological challenges, foremost of which is participant attrition. The threat of participant attrition and the importance of maintaining participant commitment to a longitudinal evaluation project cannot be emphasized more strongly. Attrition can bias and deteriorate generalizability of findings often leading to erroneous conclusions. While evaluators may be aware of the perils of participant attrition over time, many reluctantly regard high drop-out rates as inevitable. In reality, participant attrition over the course of a longitudinal evaluation project is neither acceptable nor inevitable. This course introduces the Tailored Panel Management (TPM) approach to explore how psychological research informs recruitment and retention strategies in longitudinal evaluation.
