关于发展实效的知识受到两个因素的制约。首先，政府和国际机构中决定对具体干预措施的研究投资多少的项目工作人员往往不太了解严格评估的回报，而且（即使他们了解）也不能指望他们充分考虑新知识给他人带来的外部利益。这导致对评价性研究的投资不足。第二，虽然影响评价的标准方法是有用的，但它们往往留下许多关于发展实效的问题没有答案。该文件提出了十个步骤，使评价更符合从业人员的需要。有人认为，需要更多地注意确定与政策有关的问题（包括进行干预的理由）;应对内部有效性问题采取更广泛的办法;外部有效性问题（包括扩大规模）值得更多地注意。
Knowledge about development effectiveness is constrained by two factors. First, the project staff in governments and international agencies who decide how much to invest in research on specific interventions are often not well informed about the returns to rigorous evaluation and (even when they are) cannot be expected to take full account of the external benefits to others from new knowledge. This leads to under-investment in evaluative research. Second, while standard methods of impact evaluation are useful, they often leave many questions about development effectiveness unanswered. The paper proposes ten steps for making evaluations more relevant to the needs of practitioners. It is argued that more attention needs to be given to identifying policy-relevant questions (including the case for intervention); that a broader approach should be taken to the problems of internal validity; and that the problems of external validity (including scaling up) merit more attention.
