摘要:Public service provision reform widely calls for coproduction. Based on the framing effect theory, we took waste sorting as a research context and explored the effects of goal frames and temporal frames on citizens' willingness to participate in coproduction through two between-subject survey experiments. We found that citizens' participation willingness was significantly increased when using goal frames or temporal frames. Furthermore, compared with gain frames, the effect of loss frames on c...

摘要:Boundary spanners are pivotal in developing effective public-private collaboration in public infrastructure projects. As boundary spanners have to account for different interests, perspectives, and ways of working in public-private collaborations, engaging in boundary-spanning activities often comes with role stress, which can negatively impact their job performance. However, despite the significant levels of role stress associated with boundary spanning, there is a dearth of empirical studies...

摘要:Regulatory discretion is a central theme in the study of regulation and governance. However, little attention has been paid to the question of how countries vary in the way they design regulatory discretion. This article fills this gap by conceptualizing styles of regulatory discretion according to a novel conceptual framework that distinguishes between three dimensions of regulatory discretion: obligation, content, and procedure. Empirically, the article compares regulatory discretion in Brit...

摘要:Public service providers increasingly encourage users to actively coproduce as a means to enhance public service provision. But what drives users to coproduce? Using a unique combination of survey and actual behavior log-data of 9992 smart public service users who reported service-related issues, we examine the extent to which users' self-centered and community-centered motivations are associated with their actual reporting behavior as well as the effort intensity of such behavior. Our finding...

摘要:In October 2020, President Donald Trump sought to convert many US federal civil servants to at-will employees by executive order. Trump's initiative, referred to as Schedule F, has stimulated a partisan debate about dismantling the merit system in the US federal government. A substantial international body of evidence has developed during the last three decades about the effects of administrative practices associated with meritocracy and the likely consequences of changes to civil service syst...

摘要:This article addresses whether perceived goal agreement matters for cross-sectoral collaboration outcomes. Using original survey data from Lebanon that compares the perceptions of local governcment and nonprofit leaders, the findings indicate perceived goal agreement is salient and linked to judgments that collaboration meets its objectives. The article also examines perceptions of goal agreement as it relates to social (trust) and process (power-sharing) collaboration outcomes and find it to ...

摘要:In governance networks, some actors might have more influence than others in the group's collective decision-making. This paper investigates whether an actor's prosocial and/or self-interested motivations to participate in a governance network help predict its level of influence in the group. We argue that information exchange is an important mediator in this relationship because an actor's tendency to actively diffuse information will depend on its motivations; while other participants being ...

摘要:Public service motivation (PSM), public service values (PSV), and public service ethos (PSE), we argue, constitute theoretically complementary dimensions of public service psychology. Using multi-dimensional scaling (MDS), we also empirically map the three constructs to identify their interrelationships as constituent parts of a public service topology. Using a survey of public and private employees, we determined which of the PSM, PSV, and PSE instruments most strongly correlate with (1) sect...

摘要:Networks are increasingly seen as promising generic solutions to complex public problems. This article analyzes network-building in action within a specific regional setting as an attempt to cope with increasing and varied demands for older person care, studying everyday organizational and policy activities of actors. Drawing on a qualitative in-depth case study of a regional network in Zeeland-the most aging region in the Netherlands-our findings illuminate how this network is created, nurtur...
