This study challenges persistent misrepresentations of evaluation as a value-neutral inquiry process by presenting an empirical study that deepens understanding of evaluators' values and how they "show up" in evaluation practice. Through semistructured interviews and inductive analysis, we examined the values advanced by a sample of eight experienced evaluators. We surfaced and examined 12 values, which we organized into five clusters, that shaped the constitutive elements of the studies these evaluators conducted and guided how the evaluators positioned their work. Our findings provide empirical evidence about the role of values in evaluation practice and can support evaluators in reflecting on their own values and enacting their professional and ethical responsibilities to identify and articulate their values in the context of evaluation practice.
