Résumé :
ENGLISH :
The present study examined the effectiveness of Project PRIDE, a school-based, counselor-administered, drug and alcohol prevention program. The study is presented in the context of Project PRIDE'S efforts to keep itself current and effective via continual evaluation-based development. In this outcome evaluation, Project PRIDE participants demonstrated greater pretest to posttest gains on five of six outcome measures compared to control students, although many of the changes were small or moderate and only two were statistically significant. Further, as predicted, gains in more factual or objective areas of the program were greater than in more subjective areas dealing with student perceptions and feelings. The limitations and implications of the findings are discussed. Also discussed are the advantages of the Binomial Effect Size Display as a data presentation mode that promotes both client and general audience understanding of results. (Author' s abstract)
