Journal Descriptions
The American Journal of Evaluation (AJE) is a peer‑reviewed academic journal that serves as a leading international outlet for scholarly work on evaluation theory, methods, and practice. Established in 1981, AJE aims to advance understanding of how evaluation operates in diverse social, educational, and organizational contexts and to strengthen connections between research, practice, and policy. The journal publishes original research articles, methodological innovations, empirical case studies, book reviews, and discussions on issues such as ethics, values, culture, economic evaluation, experimental and quasi‑experimental approaches, and teaching and learning in evaluation. Its broad multidisciplinary scope attracts contributions from scholars and practitioners across fields including education, public administration, health sciences, human services, sociology, and policy research. As the official journal of the American Evaluation Association (AEA), AJE supports the professional development of evaluators by fostering rigorous inquiry into evaluation design, implementation, analysis, and interpretation. Each issue reflects contemporary debates and advancements in evaluation, with an emphasis on relevance to both academic audiences and those applying evaluation in real‑world settings. Through quarterly publication and rigorous peer review, AJE remains a central resource for evaluation researchers, practitioners, educators, and decision‑makers aiming to improve evaluation quality and impact globally.
