Instrument Overview

​The Afterschool Outcome Measures Online Toolbox provides afterschool and summer programs with a means to measure program quality and student outcomes using scales that have well-established reliability and validity. The Online Toolbox includes students' reports of the quality of their experiences in their program, including their engagement in program activities, supportive relations with program staff and supportive relations with peers in their afterschool program. These student reports of program experience correlate highly with observational data of program quality. Youth reports of program quality are also linked to positive youth outcomes.​
