Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The monitoring/tracking of program activities is an example of the progress aspect of program evaluation. Relevance is evaluating the need for the program. Efficiency is evaluating the rela-tionship between program outcomes and the resources spent. Effectiveness is evaluation of the ability to meet program objectives and the results of program efforts.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Primary prevention refers to those interventions aimed at preventing the occurrence of disease, injury, or disability. Secondary prevention refers to screening and early detection. Tertiary pre-vention refers to rehabilitation and treatment. Assessment is not a level of prevention.
