It presents core evaluation concepts such as monitoring versus evaluation, the counterfactual, and selection bias, then contrasts quantitative and qualitative impact assessments. The work guides readers through study design and estimation approaches including ex post versus ex ante evaluation and randomization-based methods, emphasizing learning objectives, references, and structured guidance for rigorous impact assessment.",{"@graph":69,"@context":123},[70,84,106],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":40,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/handbook-on-impact-evaluation-quantitative-methods-and-practices/201919/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/handbook-on-impact-evaluation-quantitative-methods-and-practices/201919.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Alex Sinclair","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-04","2026-09-04",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":105},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",15,{"@type":107,"mainEntity":108},"FAQPage",[109,115,119],{"name":110,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":112},"What is the relationship between monitoring and evaluation in this handbook?","Question",{"text":113,"@type":114},"The handbook distinguishes monitoring from evaluation and explains how indicators are set within an M&E framework to support evaluation needs.","Answer",{"name":116,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":117},"How does the handbook address the counterfactual and selection bias?",{"text":118,"@type":114},"It explains the counterfactual as a foundational problem for impact evaluation and introduces the basic theory of impact evaluation, including the problem of selection bias.",{"name":120,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":121},"What quantitative impact assessment approaches are covered?",{"text":122,"@type":114},"It covers quantitative impact assessment differences between ex post and ex ante impact evaluations and discusses various evaluation approaches for ex post impact evaluation, supported by design and implementation guidance.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":125,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":127,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":129,"site_id":62},201919,1788540187,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":132},{"doc_id":129,"user_id":133,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":134,"doc_module":4,"category_id":39,"category_name":40,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":135,"file_id":136,"file_url":137,"file_type":138,"file_size":139,"view_count":105,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":140,"language":141,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":142,"faqs":143,"seo_title":144,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":130,"read_time":145,"preview_page_count":4},1099523882182,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_6f874abed73319feea01a86fa6f0fab8","Public Disc losure Authorized  \n52099  \nDisclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nPub lic Disclosure Author ized Public  \nHandbook on Impact Evaluation  \nHandbook on Impact Evaluation  \nQuantitative Methods and Practices  \nShahidur R.
