Summary
Abstract: A thorough review of prior literature and research which may have bearing on subsequent research evaluating the WIC program is presented and discussed. It provides program analysts and policy makers a basis for testing hypotheses and establishing expectations of the WIC program, and for determining the extent to which they are likely to be quantifiable in practice. The findings of this review, taken together with the information needs and interests of policy makers and WIC program operators, should provide a basis for designing (in Phase 2) the field study planned in Phase 3. A conceptual model of the WIC program is presented to organize the literature related to the program and to address issues of nutrition, maternal and child health, and delivery of services. (wz).
