Experimental and Contextual Models of Program Evaluation.

Britan, Gerald M.

Evaluation and Program Planning, v1 n3 p229-34 1978

The distinction between experimental evaluation (which employs generalizable analyses of discrete causes and effects) and contextual evaluation (which examines particular program operations holistically) is articulated. Program characteristics are examined and linked to experimental and contextual models of program evaluation. (Author/MH)
