Applied Ethics for Program Evaluation
Dianna L. Newman; Robert D. Brown
SAGE Publications Inc
1996

Applied Ethics for Program Evaluation achieves its goal of providing evaluation practitioners with a theory of ethical decision making that they can realistically apply in their work. . . . It will serve as an excellent supplementary text in introductory or advanced courses in evaluation research. The book will appeal to practicing evaluators because it addresses issues of immediate concern to them, offers realistic guidance for how to respond to those issues, and discusses philosophical matters in a way that is accessible to the nonphilosopher. . . . Applied Ethics for Program Evaluation is an excellent resource for readers to use in conjunction with the Joint Committee Standards, the ERS Standards, and/or the AEA's Guiding Principles for Evaluators. --Michael Morris, Department of Psychology, University of New Haven "This book really does a fine job of providing a theoretical model of ethical decision making for practitioners. I particularly like the way they move from theory to principles to rules." --Katherine Ryan, Instructional Resources, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign From the moment the evaluator begins the consultation process to the time when the evaluator is responding to the last reaction to the evaluation report, ethical choices are being made on matters large and small. How can an evaluator deal with ethical value issues in a way that does not smack of "ethical imperialism" or a knee-jerk prescriptive stance? Applied Ethics for Program Evaluation is aimed at sensitizing evaluators, potential clients, and stakeholders in program evaluation. In a thoughtful examination, the book explores a set of principles that can serve as foundational guidelines for making ethical decisions. Through the use of vignettes, the authors provide the readers with ethical dilemmas and questions to stimulate thinking about the positive and negative consequences of each option. Following an introduction to ethical theories and principles, the authors propose a framework (based on Kitchner's five ethical principles) that can be used in weighing these options. The book concludes by providing valuable suggestions on how evaluators can make informed ethical decisions in their own evaluation practice. Applied Ethics for Program Evaluation is recommended as a supplement in evaluation, research methods, education, management, psychology, sociology, and nursing research courses. This unique text will also appeal to professionals with an evaluation practice.

Marriage is a sacred commitment that takes a lifetime to fulfill. Without the proper perspective from the start, we can unknowingly impose an unfair expectation on our spouse that can lead to unnecessary pain. During the early years of our marriage we learned the marriage vows that we recited before God were becoming real. Our goal for this book is to be transparent with the hope that what you learn from our story will help you grow to become the couple that God desires for you to be. This book represents 40 years of a lot of "I Do's" and a significant amount of "I Don'ts", but God's grace showed us that we had a bigger purpose to fulfill in our marriage. We hope that our experiences inspires you and your spouse to say, "Let's Stay Together."

The Hospitalized Child: Psychosocial Issues is a comprehensive, abstracted bibliography focusing on the behavioral and developmental consequences of short-term, long-term or recurrent hospitalization during childhood and adolescence. The emphasis of this volume is on the psychosocial issues related to the hospital experience/environ ment, rather than on adaptation to or coping with particular disease states or terminal illness. Publications are included which identify potential problems of hospitalization, coping mechanisms of patients, parents, and staff, and possible solutions. For example, the articles covered in this volume discuss the trauma which may result from the child's separation from mother/family/peers, anxiety over medical pro cedures, unfamiliarity of the hospital environment, absence from school, restrictions on physical activity, forced dependency and con cerns over body image. The search for solutions to adaptation diffi culties often results in the creation of new hospital programs. These too are reviewed in this bibliography. Examples include child-life programs, the care-by-parent units, foster grandparent/surrogate mother programs, and hospital or surgical orientation programs. New therapeutic approaches have been attempted in a hospital setting, in cluding bibliotherapy, puppet therapy, play therapy and mutual-story telling techniques. Each of these innovations is represented in the bibliography. Further, hospital redesign schemes are reviewed, in cluding the feasibility of separate adolescent wards. And finall~, modification of hospital policy has been examined, including estab lishment of liberal visiting privileges, parent rooming-in, day v vi PREFACE surgery, and improved communication between patient, parent, and hos pitalstaff.

Lei Lei Conquers the Monsters is a story about a girl who views her family members as so-called "monsters." She is frightened by them because they are often mean and angry. Because of her fear, she spends much of her time hidden in her closet. Lei Lei has an imaginary friend, Dyimah, who encourages her and validates who she is as a person. Dyimah teaches Lei Lei about a special gift that everyone has access to: their imagination. But, Lei Lei has so much fear and skepticism, that she steers away from any attempts to use the power of her imagination until one day when her situation at home becomes dire. She is frustrated and feels she cannot trust herself or her family members. Once she confronts her fear and begins to apply her gift, Lei Lei gradually realizes that through imagination, there is hope. Little by little, she is able to experience a feeling of strength and a sense of self. Ultimately, Lei Lei becomes empowered enough to share her experience with someone she once feared.From Lei Lei's story, Dr. Grayer teaches children how to find strength, comfort and courage through their own imagination and to stay true to the essence of who they are, even in the worst of situations.
