Trained student leaders facilitate small group interventions in their respective groups using ** the previously gathered norms data.** Using a series of overheads, the facilitators engage their audience in lively, interactive discussions regarding the discrepancies between the actual norms and those estimated by the group. The overheads contain explanations of social norms theory and comparisons of campus-wide and group-specific norms data with the norms estimated by the group receiving the intervention. The presentations last approximately 45 minutes. Follow-up data are gathered to determine program effectiveness and adaptability.

Both in the context of statistical analysis - it's hard to know *exactly* what it means, as there isn't a single google.
