To reduce the complexity of the research process to manageable levels, evaluators have adopted conceptual models that define the means to be employed and the ends to be served in evaluation research. THe three most common evaluation models are the scientific, interactive, and hybrid. A study of evaluation projects mandated by the Wisconsin legislature revealed that the Hybrid model was most effective in achieving policy planning and policy control utilization, the Interactive approach provided aid to individual utilization, and the Scientific approach produced “nonutilization.”
