Abstract

A methodologn for evaluating program implementation is described. Requirements for such a methodology are derived from an analysis of the functions to be performed by implementation evaluation, the nature of the program being implemented, and character istics of the implementation process. Central features of the methodology involve procedures for the development of a multidimensional profile of the program as it evolves in practice from non- to full implementation. The profile then serves as the basis for instrument development, data collected through the instruments locate program user behavior in relation to the dimensions and levels of use described by the profile. Uses of resulting data to serve program management goals are outlined.
