The wide array of methodologies and analysis techniques available to evaluators presents both an opportunity and a challenge. Whereas practicing evaluators have an ever-growing collection of methodologies from which to choose, those seeking to take stock of recent research on the set of evaluation methodologies appropriate for a given situation are faced with a daunting task. Although a number of empirical research on evaluation studies have proposed innovative methodologies, relatively few studies offer comparisons of the relative utility of these methods. Moreover, a systematic review of the empirical research on evaluation methodology has not been published. Using a general inductive approach, this chapter systematically examines 65 peer-reviewed articles published in the American Journal of Evaluation to uncover themes and trends in research on evaluation methodologies and techniques. The present chapter provides a description of the reviewed literature, identifies the methodological themes addressed by the articles in this sample, and addresses the gaps in the current literature.
