Abstract

Abstract Performance budgeting is a contentious area in public administration literature. While performance budgeting systems are widely adopted with promises of better fiscal outcomes, public administration theory implies that this practice may generate social waste. Most empirical research that finds null or negative effects of performance budgeting focuses only on how performance budgeting affects resource allocations and cost savings. This study aims to fill the gap in the literature by conducting a quantitative panel-data analysis to determine whether the inclusion of performance information in municipal budgets contributes to better fiscal outcomes. An ordered logit regression analysis in the context of 125 large U.S. cities over a 12-year span (2008–2019) demonstrates that performance budgeting is positively associated with municipal fiscal health.

社会浪费还是成果？绩效预算对城市财政健康影响的探讨

摘要绩效预算是公共行政文献中一个有争议的领域。虽然绩效预算制度被广泛采用，并承诺取得更好的财政成果，但公共行政理论暗示，这种做法可能会产生社会浪费。大多数发现绩效预算无效或负面影响的实证研究只关注绩效预算如何影响资源分配和成本节约。这项研究旨在通过进行定量的面板数据分析来填补文献中的空白，以确定将绩效信息纳入市政预算是否有助于更好的财政结果。在美国125个大城市的12年（2008-2019年）背景下进行的有序logit回归分析表明，绩效预算与市政财政健康呈正相关。
