I'm admittedly biased, having had the good luck of working with @mrao.bsky.social on other projects, but her JMP is required reading for anyone interested in evidence-based policymaking:
We still have a relatively poor understanding of the relationship between evidence and policy. Program evaluation in particular is often motivated by a desire to make policy better. But how effective is program evaluation itself?Michelle Rao's JMP tackles this question. www.michellerao.com/research
