Culturally responsive approaches to evaluation are emerging across diverse program and community contexts to address increasingly intractable social, economic, political, and environmental concerns. Despite the sense of urgency, responsibility, and moral obligation motivating the use of these approaches, however, empirical research on the implications of centering culture in evaluation practice remains scarce. In this article, we conduct a systematic review of empirical literature, applying the concepts of use and influence as an analytic frame to explore the impact of culturally responsive evaluation in North American contexts. Our findings highlight uses of evaluation which stem from findings and processes, as well as multidirectional and unintended consequences which are documented in empirical reflections and case studies. In our discussion, we critically reflect on our analytic framework, using the concepts, constitutive effects and sustained interactivity to broaden our understanding of the myriad ways evaluation affects programs, people, and society.

探索文化响应性评估方法的使用和影响：实证文献回顾

在不同的项目和社区环境中出现了具有文化响应性的评估方法，以解决日益棘手的社会、经济、政治和环境问题。尽管紧迫感、责任感和道德义务感促使这些方法的使用，但是，关于在评估实践中以文化为中心的影响的实证研究仍然很少。在本文中，我们对实证文献进行了系统回顾，应用使用和影响的概念作为分析框架来探索文化响应评估在北美环境中的影响。我们的研究结果突出了源自研究结果和过程的评估用途，以及实证反思和案例研究中记录的多方向和意外后果。在我们的讨论中，
