정책분석평가의 다각화: 양적 방법과 질적 방법의 결합

초록

For decades, positivist philosophy and the notion of rational decision making have guided research in public policy. Recently, as qualitative approach is emphasized, important attempts to combine quantitative and qualitative methods have been made in policy evaluation research. Various qualitative methods have not yet been accepted as alternatives to quantitative methods. Under the circumstance, this study discussed alternative methods to combine quantitative(QUAN) and qualitative(QUAL) evaluation methods from the perspective of methodological triangulation. In particular, it suggested parallel combination, sequential combination, cross combination, and multi-level combination as alternative methods for policy evaluation.
