Abstract	After providing an outline of the educational policy in Austria in the first major part of the paper an overview is given about the basic concept of the MSS (Module approach to Self-evaluation of School developmental projects). The MSS approach was developed as a situation-specific evaluation tool which enables it to adapt evaluation projects to school-specific demands while at the same time adhering to the standards of scientific research. In the third chapter the value of this approach is exemplified by showing its capacity for making a possible scientifically reliable assessment of psychological health aspects within school development projects. To do so, the theoretical concept of self-efficacy is selected and its relation to psycho-social concepts relevant to health such as anxiety, aggression, and social integration are explored on the basis of the data derived from one of the schools which had implemented an MSS evaluation. It is shown that in conformity with theoretical expectation, there are negative correlations between self-efficacy on the one side and anxiety and agression. (DIPF/Orig.).
