  摘要：While scholars and practitioners frequently laud the potential of networks to address complex policy problems, empirical evidence of the effectiveness of networks is scarce. This study examines how changes in network structure (centralization and transitivity), network composition (sector diversity and geographic range), and tie properties (stability and strength) influence community-level outcomes. Relying on a statutory requirement in the state of Iowa requiring local governments to file all...

  摘要：How do local governments set performance targets under multi-task conditions? This article builds a theoretical linkage between environmental targets and gross domestic product (GDP) growth goals in China. Treating environmental protection and economic development as competitive tasks in China, the author argues that environmental targets constrain GDP growth goals and that this negative relationship is weakened by relative pollutant emission efficiency. The article empirically examines these ...

  摘要：Karens et al. (2016) conducted an experiment to measure the effect of the European Union (EU) brand on citizens' trust in policies. Experiments conducted with economics students in Belgium, Poland, and The Netherlands showed a consistently positive and significant effect of applying the EU brand, on trust in the policies. This study presents seven replications conducted several years after Karens et al.'s experiments. The replications show no significant effects of the EU brand on trust in pol...
• The Demise of the Overhead Myth: Administrative Capacity and Financial Sustainability in Nonprofit Nursing Homes AI翻译

  摘要：In the study and practice of public administration, it is often assumed that higher levels of budgetary support for non-program expenses, such as administrator salaries, accounting, grant writing, and marketing, are evidence of inefficiency and wasteful spending. As such, grant makers and researchers often use the ratio of organizations' administrative to total costs to measure the efficiency of public services. While this perspective has some validity, it also significantly minimizes the effe...
• P-Hacking,P-Curves, and thePSM-Performance Relationship: Is There Evidential Value? AI翻译

  摘要：Recent developments in the social sciences have demonstrated that we cannot uncritically aggregate the published research on a particular effect to conclude about its presence or absence. Instead, questionable research practices such asp-hacking (conducting additional analyses or collecting new data to obtain significant results) and selective publication of significant results can produce a body of published research that misleads readers even if it contains many significant results. It is, t...

• Learning from Local Government Research Partnerships in a Fragmented Political Setting AI翻译
  作者：Mullin, Megan
  作者单位：Duke University
  摘要：Research partnerships between scholars and local governments offer promise to advance scholarly understanding of local public administration and to improve the lives of people living and working in local communities. Yet political fragmentation complicates the prospect of broader learning from these partnerships and creates the risk that research partnerships will amplify disparities in local government performance. If scholars and practitioners are attentive to these risks, they can design re...
