On a smaller scale, an evaluation can be formative or summative. A formative evaluation focuses on the process of planning and implementing the project while a summative evaluation looks at the outcomes.
In the study by McNabney et al. (2009), the researchers employed a summative method ...

Logic Model for Program Planning

Logic model has been employed in planning programs for various problems. The model describes how various aspects of a program such as activities, resources, audiences, outputs, and outcomes are logically linked. It further describes how the above aspects are linked to the problem the program seeks to address. Initially, it was used in program evaluation for identifying performance measures. In this case, a program would be described in terms of logic model first before performance measures are identified. The model has since been adapted for use in program planning. In general, logic model either graphically or in narrative form seeks to ...

Reflection Paper: Study Review, Reaction, and Extension

Reflection Paper: Study Review, Reaction, and Extension
The purpose of the study by Isen and Levin (1972) was to determine whether the positive affective state affects the subsequent helpfulness to other people. Previous researchers established that there is a significant relationship between success and helping, but subsequent studies found that the relationship between success and helping did not exist when there was no previous relationship between people or when helping was low-cost or unsolicited.
Based on those studies, researchers proposed that a positive affective state may significantly determine helpfulness. However, a positive mood state was induced by reports of success ...

Understanding the relationship between agricultural growth, rural development and poverty reduction has become very difficult because of the lack of reliable data to describe the entire scenario in the subSaharan African region.

According to Jiandong Ju, the low movement of capital inflow from rich countries to poor countries can be explained using the assumption of one sector in the economy. He came up with three major propositions as to why there is little capital outflow from the rich countries to the poor countries.

When Blood is The Path

In every literary work, certain character has its place and role given by the author. Main characters are usually the easiest ones to read and understand their meaning for the narration and author's attitude to them. On the other hand, secondary characters serve a different purpose. They are often used to unravel depth of main heroes' characters and mode of actions. On the other hand, sometimes the meaning of secondary characters and the reason why author pays attention to them might be not evident at all. This is the case of Dr. Seward's patient Renfield in Bram Stoker's "Dracula".

In addition to the fact that Tiebout's assumptions are unrealistic, as mentioned before, even with these assumptions he did not provide a mathematical proof of the equilibrium in his article. Some scholars tried to formalize the model and suggest that the model does not work as we would expect from a pareto optimal general equilibrium model. Bewley (1981) showed that Tiebout equilibrium does not have a Pareto optimal solution unless we add some other restrictive assumptions to the model. He provided a series of examples which highlights the inefficiency of Tiebout model. Moreover, as the reviewed literature shows, relaxing Tiebout’s assumption does ...
