Abstract
The goal of this study was to examine how policymakers at the local community level use social science information in making decisions The assumption which guided the study is that the use of social science information is related to how it interacts with other information and with the ideology and interests of the policymaker in the decision-making process. Findings from the study revealed that policymakers drew on a variety of information sources. The use of social science information was dependent on the ideology and interests of the decisionmakers and on the specific circumstances which shaped the decision-making process.
