Operationalising capacities theory to integrate quasi-experimental and inductive designs in evaluation

Building on a research seminar given at the Department of Methodology by Professor Judith Green (LSHTM) I am pleased to say that the latest paper out of the ‘On the buses’ study I worked on as a Research Fellow has now been published. Using already published papers on the findings of this study as a backdrop, as well as presenting some of this data in the course of the argument, this paper reflects on some theoretical and practical challenges of conducting a mixed-methods evaluation of a public policy and the approach we employed for meeting these challenges.
