When it comes to interpreting or sharing results, evaluators owe it to their audiences to report findings in plain, truthful language no puff, no burying bad news. Every report must be written with the end user in mind, so that everyone from line officers to policy makers can read it without needing a PhD. By sticking to these simple rules, evaluators in the criminal justice field keep their work anchored in accountability, fairness, and public confidencemaking sure their reports actually serve the programs they study and the neighborhoods they protect.
