Abstract
Administrative research is concerned with the way in which public health services are provided and with all factors that bear on providing these services. Its aim is to plant scientific principles among the empirical foundations of administration. At present, it includes many preliminary studies which must find suitable hypotheses for testing and develop valid measuring devices. While it is widely assumed that the findings of administrative research should change public health programs, this view is not completely realistic. However, there are sufficiently promising examples to justify intensive efforts to improve the technics and increase the scale of administrative research.
