Effectiveness of Nongovernmental and Nonprofit Organizations: Some Methodological Caveats

Abstract

This article provides some caveats to the Boolean algebra procedure described by Robert Herman in the Fall 1990 issue of this journal. Several issues and doubts are raised concerning the use of this procedure as a bridge between log-linear regression and combinational logic. The description of a method that the authors believe to be more appropriate for the study of organizational effectiveness follows. The authors agree with Herman that more studies of the organizational effectiveness of nongovernmental and nonprofit organizations are needed.
