Abstract

This article presents the results of a study on how to evaluate forecasts. The study constructs a model procedure for a systematic forecasting evaluation by which one can judge the utility of any information about the future. Such evaluation is necessary for a more rational policy-planning process; because useful forecasts are an indispensable input to decision-making. The purpose of this contribution, then, is to improve our capacity for intentional action.
