Reinhard, Diane L. – 1973
Methodology for input evaluation, as defined by Daniel L. Stufflebeam, is relatively nonexistent. Advocate teams have recently become a popular means of generating and assessing alternative strategies for a set of objectives. This study was undertaken to develop and evaluate methodology for advocate team use in input evaluation. Steps taken…

Forsyth, Robert A. – 1972
In Dyer's Student Change Model, performance indicators (PIs) are utilized as a measure of the effectiveness of educational programs. These PIs are examined and analyzed in some detail in this paper. In particular, the reliability of the residuals, the sensitivity of the measure to sample size, the random half reliability, and the stability of the…

Hernon, Peter – RQ, 1987
Identifies aspects of reference services amenable to evaluation, discusses the need for measures of service quality as well as quantity, presents modifications of current measures that meet this need, and stresses the importance of linking performance measures to library planning. (CLB)

Nagel, Stuart S. – Evaluation and Program Planning: An International Journal, 1983
Threshold analysis (TA) is introduced as an evaluation model. TA converts unknown variables into questions as to whether a given benefit, cost, or success probability is more or less than a threshold, above which the proposed project would be profitable, and below which it would be unprofitable. (Author/PN)

Griffith, J. W. – Building Research, 1973
Resource optimization in building design is based on the total system over its expected useful life. Alternative environmental systems can be evaluated in terms of resource costs and goal effectiveness. (Author/MF)

Gastil, Raymond D. – Public Administration Review, 1970
Abstract social indicators for the quality of life" or very broad aspects of it will be presented as aids to decisionmakers in the very near future. More could be learned by working out in some detail the meaning and comparability of less aggregated social statistics, with clear separation of output and input. (Author)

Bessent, Authella M.; And Others – Educational Administration Quarterly, 1983
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), a mathematical model for measuring decision-making units' efficiency, was applied to resource allocation information in the division of occupational and technical programs at San Antonio (Texas) College. Input-output data were used to analyze existing programs' efficiency and proposed program modifications. (RW)

Kaufman, Roger – Group and Organization Studies, 1981
Presents a method for holistic organizational analysis that provides developers with a rationale to obtain data and decision bases for successful internal and extraorganizational intervention and change. The analysis, based on the Organizational Elements Model, relates organizational resources, efforts, results, and organizational impact. Presents…

Cooke, Robert A.; Rousseau, Denise M. – Educational Administration Quarterly, 1981
Presents a model relating the adequacy of an organization's problem-solving to its resources and to the appropriateness of its structures. Describes a test of the model, on 25 public elementary and secondary schools in southeastern Michigan, which found that different organizational structures use money differently and produce different outputs.…

Larson, Richard C.; Kaplan, Edward H. – New Directions for Program Evaluation, 1981
Evaluation is discussed as an information-gathering process. Currently popular evaluation programs are reviewed in relation to decision making and various approaches that seem to contribute to the decision utility of evaluation (e.g. classical approaches, Bayesian approaches, adaptive designs, and model-based evaluations) are described. (Author/AL)

Nediger, W. G. – International Journal of Institutional Management in Higher Education, 1980
Studies done at five Canadian universities designed to test an analytic technique that enables the researcher to develop a utility function for each faculty in an institution are reported. A tool for the identification of two power indices--influence in budgetary allocation and academic policymaking--is provided. (MLW)

Phillips, James A. – Community/Junior College Research Quarterly, 1977
Utilizing the American Council on Education model for determining the economic impact of colleges on local economies, it was found that Cypress College significantly affected the local economy of its district in a positive direction. The model is recommended for evaluating benefits derived from tax payments to support community college districts.…
