Why Take This Assessment?

Identify your strengths in applying social and behavioural science approaches.

Understand key areas for improvement.

Get actionable recommendations to enhance your skills.

 This assessment consists of 30 straightforward questions, each designed to be answered with on a simple 3-point scale, allowing for quick and efficient completion. Taking approximately 10-15 minutes, it evaluates your skills and abilities across five key areas of SBC. These areas include understanding behavioural determinants, selecting and applying effective methods, designing and implementing impactful programmes, monitoring and evaluating outcomes, and addressing ethics, inclusivity, and power dynamics. The structured format ensures a comprehensive assessment of your SBC capabilities.

Assessment Sections

This category assesses your ability to analyse and identify the factors influencing specific behaviours. High scores indicate proficiency in using tools like situation analysis and socio-ecological models to understand behavioural determinants. Low scores suggest the need to focus on foundational skills like identifying social norms and prioritising barriers to change.

Here, your capacity to choose and apply behaviour change methods is evaluated. High scores reflect expertise in matching methods to specific determinants and tailoring interventions to cultural contexts. Low scores highlight the opportunity to improve your knowledge of behaviour change theories and the practical application of these methods.

This section evaluates your readiness to design and execute SBC interventions effectively. High scores suggest confidence in creating communication strategies, setting SMART objectives, and pretesting materials. Low scores point to the need for training in audience segmentation and programme coordination across channels.

This category measures your skills in monitoring and assessing the success of SBC initiatives. High scores indicate a strong ability to design M&E frameworks, link indicators to objectives, and use data for programme improvement. Low scores reveal gaps in data collection, quality assurance, and reporting findings to stakeholders.

This category gauges your understanding of ethical considerations and inclusivity in SBC programmes. High scores reflect a commitment to addressing gender dynamics, power imbalances, and unintended consequences. Low scores suggest the need to strengthen practices in stakeholder engagement, consent processes, and empowering marginalised groups.
