1 In the full sample only. Primary measures were defined as outcomes measured through direct observation, direct assessment, administrative data, or self-report data collected using a standardized (normed) instrument. Secondary measures included other self-report measures.

2 Yes if favorable impacts were sustained longer than one year post program inception.

3 Yes if favorable impacts (whether sustained or not) were replicated on at least one outcome measure in the same outcome domain on either a high or moderate quality study

4This number includes unfavorable impacts on both primary and secondary measures in the full sample. Unfavorable findings should be interpreted with caution because there is subjectivity involved interpreting some outcomes. Readers are encouraged to use the HomVEE website, specifically the reports by program model and by outcome domain, to obtain more detail about unfavorable findings.
