Abstract

This is the second part of a 2-part article that summarizes a review of research designs for assessing the impact of the USDA's food assistance and nutrition programs on nutrition and health. The first part focused on the research designs for evaluating ongoing national programs. Here, the random experiment and 3 quasi-experimental designs that can be used to evaluate the impacts of demonstration projects are reviewed.
