Only those programs that are likely to fail are evaluated.
Von Peter Rossi im Text The Iron Law Of Evaluation And Other Metallic Rules (1987) Bemerkungen
Of the several metallic laws of evaluation, the zinc law has the most optimistic slant since it implies that there are effective programs but that such effective programs are never evaluated. It also implies that if a social program is effective, that characteristic is obvious enough and hence policy makers and others who sponsor and fund evaluations decide against evaluation.
