Data Analysis Exercise

Question 3
Based on the determinants you described create a logic framework for the project that outlines the causal pathways. How might the incinerator affect health outcomes? What data sources would you use to evaluate potential impacts? What proximal and intermediate impacts would mediate the health outcomes? It would be easiest if you draft this on a separate sheet of paper.

Hint: Start with four headings - Policy/Project; Proximal Impacts; Intermediate Outcomes; Health Outcomes. The policy/project would be the incinerator. How might the placement of the incinerator cause health impacts for residents of Merryville?

When you’re finished, click on the "Next" button to see one logic framework that was created for this project. Remember, this is not the only way to envision how the incinerator might affect the health of a community.
