The role of experience in formulating theories of evaluation practice

Journal/Book: Am J Eval. 1998; 19: 100 Prospect St, PO Box 811, Stamford, CT 06901. Jai Press Inc. 35-55.

Abstract: Although it is widely believed that evaluation theory is practice-based, it is rare to see any systematic examination of the fit between the two. This address, given at AEA's most recent meeting in San Diego, uses a data base of about 300 published evaluations to compare some of the lessons learned in recent practice against some of our more hallowed theoretical precepts.
