Popis: Practices in educational program evaluation were examined through analyses of reports submitted to the U.S. Department of Education's Joint Dissemination Review Panel (JDRP) during the years 1980-1983. Through its review process, the JDRPjudges whether educational programs have demonstrated effectiveness in attaining stated goals. Content analyses of 232 JDRP reports yielded descriptive profiles of the educational programs and their evaluations. Comparisons between JDRP-approved and nonapproved programs were made. Regression analyses were used to relate differences in evaluation methodology to differences in the size of educational effects detected by the programs.
