Each dynamic issue of the American Journal of Evaluation (AJE) explores the complex and difficult challenges related to conducting evaluations. From choosing program theories to implementing an evaluation to presenting the final report to managing an evaluation's consequences, AJE offers original, peer-reviewed, often highly cited articles about the methods, theory, and practice of evaluation.
Because the field of evaluation is diverse, with different intellectual traditions, approaches to practice, and domains of application, AJE features broad, multidisciplinary perspectives relevant to education, public administration, behavioral sciences, human services, health research, sociology, economics, and criminology.
Some of the critical subjects covered in recent and forthcoming issues include:
