Abstract

Published articles from the Evaluation and Program Planning journal were examined over a six year period from 2010 to 2016. We investigated the focus of the journal, evaluation type (formative vs summative), number of articles published, place of authorship, number of authors, research domain of articles, research topics, and data collection method used. Results indicated that (a) public health, evaluation, and adolescent/child research domains were most prevalent; (b) most authors were from North-America; (c) most articles had three or more authors; and (d) document review was most prevalent data collection method. We suggest that more articles with a multicultural background be published, and more articles be solicited from other countries to fulfull the international mission of the journal.
