摘要:The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides food assistance to those in need, and while the program reaches many who are eligible, program participation falls short of reaching all who are eligible. One factor contributing to this gap in participation is difficulty understanding program eligibility, a common challenge with means-tested benefit programs. Governments have attempted to improve public understanding of these complex programs using a range of tools to reduce learni...

摘要:Generating strategic foresight for public organizations is a resource-intensive and non-trivial effort. Strategic foresight is especially important for governments, which are increasingly confronted by complex and unpredictable challenges and wicked problems. With advances in machine learning, information systems can be integrated more creatively into the strategic foresight process. We report on an innovative pilot project conducted by an Australian state government that leveraged generative ...

The resultant relationship between impervious corruption and deformation of democracy is then explained. The focus turns to President Donald Trump's political corruption and shows how the current United States political ecology has suborn...

摘要:Transaction cost (TC) theoretical constructs are central to research throughout the social sciences, yet key concepts, such as measurability and asset specificity, often defy systematic empirical measurement. In government contracting research, empirical measurements of key TC theoretical constructs are limited to the International City/County Management Association's surveys of US municipal and county governments. We present a preregistered method using machine learning algorithms to generate...
