Over de bureaucratische paradox en de effecten van Public Service Motivation op corruptie
Get PDFDit artikel onderzoekt de effecten van Public Service Motivation (PSM) op pro-social en pro-self gerichte vormen van corruptie. Het onderzoek toont aan dat PSM ertoe kan bijdragen om pro-self gerichte vormen van corruptie te voorkomen. Echter, de analyses tonen tegelijkertijd aan dat een hoge mate van PSM publieke dienstverleners stimuleert om bepaalde regels en procedures te omzeilen, wat aanleiding geeft tot een bureaucratische paradox: Bureaucratieën trekken medewerkers aan met een hoge mate van PSM die vervolgens breken met bepaalde regels en procedures zodat het principe van gelijke toegang tot de publieke dienstverlening onder druk komt te staan. Bovendien lijken onderliggende motieven eerder gericht te zijn ophet beschadigen van de organisatie terwijl het belang van de cliënt een veel meer ondergeschikte rol heeft. De resultaten van het onderzoek zijn gebaseerd op (semi)-experimenteel onderzoek dat werd gerepliceerd in België, Duitsland en Nederland. Aan het onderzoek namen een 600-tal respondenten deel
Struggling between control, competition and collaboration : concepts about hybridity and its main antecedents and consequences
No full textAbstract: Public organizations attempt to cope with processes of institutional change by continuously looking for ways to ensure legitimacy as their survival - in contrast to their profit-driven counterparts within the private sector - is largely dependent on the public support obtained from elected officials, civil servants and civilians. Yet, the demands stemming from the institutional environment are diverse and often reflect conflicting viewpoints. Public organizations in response to these challenges employ mechanisms such as selective coupling in an attempt to balance between conflicting institutional logics, which cause the emergence of hybrid forms. However, literature lacks clear conceptual frameworks that define how these institutional logics actually look like. Furthermore, within the current discourse in the field of Public Administration, empirical research addressing the main drivers of hybridity is inadequate, resulting in a limited understanding of its primary antecedents. Finally, although hybridity has been found to potentially affect an organization\u2019s performance, there is scant empirical research examining these claims. Relying on a neo-institutional framework, this dissertation identifies and defines the main institutional logics within public organizations, studies which processes drive public organizations towards hybridity, and analyzes how hybridity might affect organizational performance. Some overall conclusions are that core institutional changes drive public organizations toward developing hybrid forms; yet, public organizations in response to these changes tend to pursue different strategies, ranging from segmentation to segregation and absorption. Furthermore, hybrid forms are likely to cause considerable performance-tensions. One of the most challenging performance-tensions has been empirically confirmed, using a quasi-experimental research design. As a result, we found that public servants with high levels of Public Service Motivation in hybrid organizations that combine bureaucratic and New Public Management-related logics are more likely to engage in acts of pro-social rule-breaking in order to pursue customer-oriented goals, which results in client-based discrimination. In conclusion, although not every organization is subject to hybridity, our studies showed that hybridity is a widespread phenomenon, caused by large shifts in institutional demands with substantial effects on organizational performance
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
