Abstract
This report introduces the crime prevention knowledge-base on evaluation and lays out the foundations of a systemist evaluation framework for online influence activities (OIAs). Different approaches to evaluation are assessed for suitability, including evidence-based and realist evaluation, and the pros and cons of the main families of research designs are described. The case is made that a formative realist model, supplemented by a systemist analytical framework, is best suited to OIA evaluation, given the embryonic state of the problem domain and the absence of a systematic knowledge-base on influence activities. A prototype of a systemist formative evaluation framework for OIA is presented.
