Context
Intervention

7. Study of the intervention
Approach chosen for assessing the impact of the intervention
Approach used to establish whether the observed outcomes were do to the intervention

8. Measures
Measures chosen for studying processes and outcomes of the intervention(s), including rationale for choosing them, their operational definitions, and their validity and reliability
Description of the approach to the ongoing assessment of contextual elements that contributed to the success, failure, efficiency, and cost
Methods employed for assessing completeness and accuracy of data

9. analysis
Qualitative and quantitative methods used to draw inferences from the data
Methods for understanding variation within the data, including the effects of time as a variable
