Abstrakt: Purpose: The presentation explains the Project Scoring Matrix (PSM) instrument that was developed by the Central States Center for Agricultural Safety and Health (CS-CASH). Aspects include the instrument development process, what key outcomes are measured, data sources, PSM outcomes weighting, and ranking criteria. Methods: The PSM took 2 years to develop under the direction of our health economist, Dr. Fernando Wilson, and in collaboration with the evaluation team and CS-CASH leaders. The PSM is an innovative instrument that quantitatively scores and tracks outcomes. Results/Findings: Findings are used for annual program improvements. Longitudinal data will provide the basis for estimating the economic impact of CS-CASH outcomes using Social Return on Investment (SROI) analysis. Practical Application: The PSM has potential for use in other Centers and is consistent with the NIOSH focus on outcomes Evaluation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
