Unexpected but Most Welcome: Mixed Methods for the Validation and Revision of the Participatory Evaluation Measurement Instrument

---

Although combining methods is nothing new, more contributions about why and how to mix
methods for validation purposes are needed. This article presents a case of validating the inferences
drawn from the Participatory Evaluation Measurement Instrument, an instrument that
purports to measure stakeholder participation in evaluation. Although the process was intended
to be almost exclusively quantitative, one of its components unexpectedly turned into a mixed
methods study. This, in turn, spurred on a cycle of instrument revision and further quantitative
validation. Whereas the validation evidence is modest and tentative, it suggests that the revised
version of the Participatory Evaluation Measurement Instrument offers a better fit with the
respondents’ opinions regarding the participation level of selected evaluation cases. The article
concludes with a brief discussion on the added value of mixed methods for validation purposes.

Keywords: stakeholder participation, stakeholder involvement, conceptualization, instrument development
and validation, Participatory Evaluation Measurement Instrument (PEMI), thematic analysis
