This book provides a self-contained presentation of the statistical
tools required for evaluating public programs, as advocated by many
governments, the World Bank, the European Union, and the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. After
introducing the methodological framework of program evaluation, the
first chapters are devoted to the collection, elementary
description and multivariate analysis of data as well as the
estimation of welfare changes. The book then successively presents
the tools of ex-ante methods (financial analysis, budget planning,
cost-benefit, cost-effectiveness and multi-criteria evaluation) and
ex-post methods (benchmarking, experimental and quasi-experimental
evaluation). The step-by-step approach and the systematic use of
numerical illustrations equip readers to handle the statistics of
program evaluation. It not only offers practitioners from public
administrations, consultancy firms and nongovernmental
organizations the basic tools and advanced techniques used in
program assessment, it is also suitable for executive management
training, upper undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as for
self-study.
