Counseling Outcome Research and Evaluation
(CORE) provides counselor educators, researchers, educators, and other mental health practitioners (including psychologists, social workers, marriage and family therapists, and addictions counselors) with outcome research and program evaluation practices for work with individuals across the lifespan. It addresses topics such as: treatment efficacy, clinical diagnosis, program evaluation, research design, outcome measure reviews.

Outcome-based Program Evaluation: Evaluation practices within mental health agencies and school and college settings, program development and process evaluations, outcome evaluations, evaluation methodology, evaluation ethics, interdisciplinary evaluations, cultural issues in program evaluations.

Outcome Measure Reviews: Critical reviews and integration of classes or groups of clinical assessment tools used as dependent variables in research studies and outcome measures in clinical practice.

Outcome Research Design: Methodological issues in intervention research, innovative qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methodology, single subject designs, case studies exemplifying assessment and outcome research practices, statistics in assessment and outcome research, data analysis procedures, and report writing.
