A Schema for Evaluating Evidence on Public Health Interventions

The Schema for Evaluating Evidence on Public Health Interventions was developed to assist researchers, practitioners, and policy makers to critically appraise published research about public health interventions. It is intended to assist the systematic appraisal of the strengths, limitations and gaps in published research as evidence.

The Schema was developed over a three year period, with the final version being published in June 2002.
