  摘要：With the advancement of artificial intelligence, algorithms are transforming the operations of the public sector. However, lack of algorithm transparency may result in issues such as algorithmic bias and accountability challenges, ultimately undermining public trust. Based on the principles of replication experiments and procedural justice theory, this study conducted a replication of Grimmelikhuijsen in a Chinese context. The replication reaffirmed Grimmelikhuijsen's core findings that algori...

• Institutional Pressures or Organizational Capacity? Antecedents of Digital Maturity in Local Governments AI翻译

  摘要：Public administration research has identified institutional pressures and organizational capacity as digital maturity (DM) antecedents, yet these are typically considered in isolation. Taking the proverbial next step, this study draws on primary survey data to explain the variation of DM among local governments in Flanders (the northern region of Belgium) by juxtaposing the explanatory power of institutional pressures on the one hand, and political and administrative capacity on the other hand...

  摘要：Police organizations increasingly use predictive algorithms for surveillance, raising privacy concerns and potentially decreasing citizen trust in these prominent policing tools. This paper investigates whether two dimensions of institutional transparency, transparency about legislation and external monitoring, can influence trust in predictive policing. Using a representative survey experiment with 877 Dutch citizens, we find that disclosing how police's use of predictive algorithms is monito...

  摘要：Public service motivation (PSM) is widely recognized as a predictor of positive outcomes, yet relatively little is known about how it can be deliberately cultivated. Drawing on conservation of resources (COR) theory, the present research investigates whether and how exposure to moral exemplars embedded in public-sector training enhances PSM. Employing a multi-method design that combines a recall experiment with a field survey, we find that exposure to uncommon moral exemplars elicits moral ele...

  摘要：Equity has been at the core of public finance going at least as far back as 1776 when Adam Smith included it as one of four canons of a good tax in his classic An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (Tax Project Institute 2025). Smith postulated that equity should be based on a taxpayer's ability to pay, establishing the foundation that defined equity by comparing taxes to income and wealth. This orientation of the equity dialogue in public finance has persisted since t...
• Institutional Factors as Antecedents of Energy Efficiency Policies at the Local Level AI翻译

  摘要：This article explores institutional factors as antecedents of energy efficiency policy adopted by the largest cities within the United States. Drawing on the theory of institutional isomorphism, we hypothesize that four forces-coercive, normative, and mimetic isomorphism, along with nonprofit pressure-affect the energy efficiency policy of 41 of the largest cities within the United States from 2013 to 2019. We find some evidence for coercive and normative isomorphic pressures, but conflicting ...
• Between Trust and Blame: Citizen Perceptions of Street-Level Bureaucrats During the Pandemic AI翻译

  摘要：Policy implementation studies have focused on encounters between street-level bureaucrats and citizens. However, insufficient research has explored how citizens experience such encounters, especially during crises. To address the research gap, this study investigated citizens' perspectives on the roles of street-level bureaucrats during the pandemic. Using a survey of Chinese citizens and employing Q methodology, we identified three distinct profiles: self-preserving implementers, public prote...
