L'évaluation des Ressources Alternatives: À La Recherche De Modèles Alternatifs En Évaluation

Publication: Canadian Journal of Community Mental Health
September 1985

Abstract

Following the current literature, alternative resources for the mentally ill have already demonstrated their efficiency. However, the question remains of their role and specificity within the general service network in the field of mental health, especially when looking at their development and financial support. Social research, especially evaluation research, can contribute an answer to these questions concerning the organization of the service delivery system. This paper focuses on various evaluation approaches (systemic model, course of implementation and formative evaluation) of alternative resources and expectancies towards research.

Résumé

Suivant la littérature, les resources alternatives en santé mental ont d'ores et déjà la preuve de leur efficacité. Mais la question de leur place de leur spécificité dans le réseau des services en santé menale demeure cruciale, en raport avec leur developpement et leur financement. La recherche sociale, évaluative en particulier, peut contributer à répondre à certaines des questions posées par le mouvement alternatif dans le domaine de l'organisation des services et de l'intervention en santé mentale. Cet article considère différents modèles d'évaluation—modèles systémique, évaluation de l'implantation et évaluation formative—en regard des caractères spécifiques des resources alternatives et des attentes face à la recherche.
