evaluationprogra00broo.pdf (8.269Mb)Abstract
Increasing costs and declining resources have resulted
in emphasis placed on evaluation and measurement of
effectiveness and efficiency of Morale, Welfare, and
Recreation organizations. This thesis addresses the
requirement for evaluation, the construction of measures of
output, effectiveness, and efficiency and the development of
an evaluation program for nonprofit government organizations
which support morale, welfare, and recreation. The research
involves a review of the literature on management control,
development of criteria and measures, and an on-site study
of a recreation activity. The author concludes that an
evaluation program is essential and makes recommendations
for the use of output measures of effectiveness as well as
measures of efficiency and financial viability that can be
used by management.
