We conclude by raising some questions that need to be addressed more rigorously by both the foundation and evaluation communities if we are to collectively improve the use of evaluation by one of our country's more important and powerful resources: foundations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":84713,"journal":{"name":"Evaluation practice","volume":"17 1","pages":"Pages 19-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0886-1633(96)90037-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71783716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
