  摘要：Policy and public management scholars have long theorized about the fragmentation of policy governance across numerous agencies, yet the effects of concentrated or dispersed governance on outcomes of the target population are largely unknown. Child policy is a policy field where dispersion has raised particular concerns, leading several states to consolidate governance for children's programs in recent years. After presenting arguments both for and against the dispersion of policies across age...

  摘要：The rapid growth of network research in public administration calls for a systematic review of existing network scholarship. We performed bibliometric analysis and content analysis to identify the research that has had impact on empirical network research in public administration. We examined the key theoretical foundations of existing network research with a focus on empirical network articles that used social network analysis in their methods. We examined the evolution of network scholarship...
• Cognitive Biases in Performance Evaluations AI翻译

  摘要：Performance evaluations are a central component in the administration of public organizations. The predominant model of how both public managers and citizens evaluate performance suggests that satisfaction judgments about performance are based on a comparison of performance to some adapted standard like expectations or goals. However, in a number of experiments we show that perceptions of performance and satisfaction are formed in ways that are not so consistent and better explained by an intu...
• Public, Nonprofit, and For-Profit Sector Regulatory Approaches in Third-Party Regulatory Administration AI翻译
  作者：Carter, David P.
  作者单位：Utah System of Higher Education; University of Utah
  摘要：Many contemporary regulatory programs rely on third-party organizations to fulfill monitoring and enforcement functions. Third-party regulatory designs introduce complexity and potentially conflicting incentives that can impact program delivery. This article examines how regulatory program outputs are shaped by third-party administrators through an investigation of the organizations charged with administering US organic food regulations. Based on the notion that third-party arrangements draw a...

• Neither Market Nor Hierarchy: Concurrent Sourcing in Water Public Services AI翻译
  作者：Porcher, Simon
  摘要：Analytical frameworks of government service contracting decisions typically focus on the make-or-buy decision. In concepts, governments can either produce the service itself (make) or outsource production (buy). However, governments make and buy the same public services, a practice that is termed concurrent sourcing. Drawing on transaction costs economics and the resource-based view of the firm, this article examines empirically local governments' propensities to concurrently source public ser...
• Clerks or Kings? Partisan Alignment and Delegation to the US Bureaucracy AI翻译
  作者：Palus, Christine Kelleher; Yackee, Susan Webb

  摘要：Scholars often assert that the delegation of policy discretion to administrative agencies is driven, in part, by partisanship. In short, the ally principle dictates that elected officials delegate more policy discretion to agency officials when their partisanship aligns because such an alignment reduces uncertainty about future policy choices. In contrast, we draw on insights from social identity theory to theorize that partisan alignment may, in practice, decrease the overall perceived policy...
• Does Pension Plan Structure Affect Turnover Patterns? AI翻译
  作者：Lewis, Gregory B.; Stoycheva, Rayna L.

  摘要：Public pension plans face pressures to cut costs. Although government costs and retiree benefits drive changes in retirement plans, policy makers should also consider impacts on turnover and retirement behavior. In the mid-1980s, Congress moved new federal employees from a traditional defined benefit (DB) pension plan to a new hybrid plan, comprised of a smaller DB plan, Social Security, and a new defined contribution (DC) plan. Early analyses of the change from the Civil Service Retirement Sy...
