  摘要：This article tests a broad range of cognitive biases branching out from prospect theory in the context of public policy and management. Results illuminate systematic deviations from rationality. In experiments 1 through 5, the framing of outcomes influenced decisions across policy and management domains. In experiment 6, public employees were prone to an anchoring bias when setting standards for responsiveness. Experiment 7 shows that public workers tend to put more effort into activities that...

  摘要：Governments at all levels buy mission-critical goods and services whose attributes and performance requirements are hard to define and produce. Many governments-and the public managers who lead them-lack experience and knowledge about how to contract for complex products. The contract management counsel provided to public managers is thin. Missing is a conceptual managerial framework to guide purchasing the complex products that are often so critical to public organizations' core missions. Dra...
• Can Managerial Turnover Be a Good Thing? The Impact of City Manager Change on Local Fiscal Outcomes AI翻译

  摘要：A long line of private sector research outlines the positive and negative impacts of employee and managerial turnover on organizations. However, public administration scholars often treat turnover as a phenomenon to be avoided and focus more on the antecedents of managerial turnover than on its consequences for public organizations. Within the context of local government, the impact of city manager turnover on organizational outcomes is unclear. This article identifies how city manager turnove...
• Never Change a Winning Policy? Public Sector Performance and Politicians' Preferences for Reforms AI翻译

  摘要：Despite the increasing stress on performance in public sector organizations, there is still little empirical evidence on whether-and if so, how-politicians respond to performance information. This article addresses this research gap by linking registry statistics on school performance in Norway's 428 municipalities with data from an information experiment embedded in a survey of local politicians. Findings show that school performance bears only a weak relationship to politicians' preferences ...

  摘要：This research examines the extent to which political similarities-that is, homophily between political actors at the local level-affect patterns of interorganizational collaboration in an emergency response situation. While the field of emergency management has focused on implementation-oriented arrangements among key stakeholders, few studies have systemically investigated the creation and development of interorganizational collaborations led by political actors, especially following catastro...
• Body-Worn Cameras and Policing: A List Experiment of Citizen Overt and True Support AI翻译

  摘要：Police body-worn cameras (BWCs) have gained popularity in recent years. However, many minimize the complexity of this transparency initiative and elevate the potential benefits. While BWCs can promote police accountability, they may also reduce citizen trust in police organizations. For BWCs to achieve win-win solutions, police organizations should determine the level of citizen support for specific BWC practices. However, measuring citizen support presents several challenges. Social desirabil...
• The State of Mixed Methods Research in Public Administration and Public Policy AI翻译
  作者：Hendren, Kathryn; Luo, Qian Eric; Pandey, Sanjay K.
  作者单位：George Washington University; George Washington University; George Washington University
  摘要：Public administration scholars have publicized the benefits of mixed methods research and exhorted researchers to embrace mixed methods research design. Despite increasing calls for and numbers of mixed methods publications, thus far there has been no rigorous assessment of the value added by mixed methods research designs. This article provides an assessment of mixed methods articles published in leading public administration and public policy journals. The authors assess methodological quali...
