“公众参与“的概念目前是研究人员和决策者非常感兴趣的概念之一。由于认识到有必要让决策者和公众更多地参与决策和政策制定过程，因此制定了各种新的机制，如协商一致会议和公民陪审团，以补充公众会议等传统机制。然而，由于评价工作很少，各种机制的相对有效性尚不清楚。在这篇文章中，作者描述了一个为期两天的“审议会议”的主题辐射剂量评估的评价。作者详细介绍了他们采用的评估框架，并描述了他们为确定该框架中规定的评估标准的实现（或其他）而开发的工具。最后，他们运用这些工具评估活动的有效性，并讨论结果及其对开展评估和使用这一特定参与机制的影响。
The concept of "public participation " is currently one of great interest to researchers and policy makers. In response to a perceived need for greater public involvement in decision making and policy formation processes on the part of both policy makers and the general public, a variety of novel mechanisms have been developed, such as the consensus conference and citizens jury, to complement traditional mechanisms, such as the public meeting. However the relative effectiveness of the various mechanisms is unclear as efforts at evaluation have been sparse. In this article, the authors describe an evaluation of a two-day "deliberative conference" on the topic of radiation dose assessment. The authors detail the evaluation framework that they adopt and describe the instruments that they have developed to determine the attainment (or otherwise) of the evaluation criteria stipulated in that framework. They then describe the participation exercise that they have evaluated Finally, they apply the instruments to assess the effectiveness of the exercise, and discuss the results and their implications for the conduct of evaluations and the use of this particular participation mechanism.
