Drawing on a dataset of 30,558 corruption-related court judgments in China, this study employs hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) by integrating individual-level data and provincial-level data to yield three major findings. First, agent-controlled transparency is more likely to decrease the concealment of petty corruption than grand corruption. Furthermore, agent-controlled transparency is more likely to reduce the latency of autocorruption than transactive corruption, which is usually disguised in normal social interactions. Third, when the scale and form of corruption are combined into four types, namely petty autocorruption, grand autocorruption, petty transactive corruption, and grand transactive corruption, agent-controlled transparency is more likely to reduce the latent period of petty autocorruption than that of other types.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48258,"journal":{"name":"Government Information Quarterly","volume":"41 2","pages":"Article 101942"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141231357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a real-life dataset of an online petition platform, we show that the proposed model performs well in several important evaluation metrics when compared with benchmark models. This study offers several contributions. First, we present how to translate these concepts into textual features of petitions that can be understood by computers to improve prediction of petition success. The predictive models developed and the patterns of online petitioning identified enhance our understanding of collective actions on online petition platforms. In addition, we demonstrate that we can develop a better predictive model by adopting both supervised and unsupervised approaches of model development together with datasets that are exogenous from online petition platforms. Further examination of the predictive models in future may enable us to define vague concepts in a systematic way. On practical implications, our proposed text-mining model enables policy makers to handle a large volume of social data in a relatively objective manner. This is conducive to civic participation in e-democracy. The model may help policy makers identify potentially popular issues and prevent issue expansion at an early stage to mitigate the possible incursion of social cost. Moreover, by developing a predictive model based on our approach, citizens can compare different petition texts to determine their chances of success and post texts that have a higher predicted rate of success.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48258,"journal":{"name":"Government Information Quarterly","volume":"41 2","pages":"Article 101937"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140919002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While prior studies have contributed to understanding the institutional and organizational determinants of government digital services, much less is known about their utilization and the actual public value they generate from the perspective of the citizen, particularly in developing countries. Some research on technology, economic, and other social divides even suggests that both the use and value of digital services are potentially limited. In this paper, we apply the Delone and McLean model, a well-established information systems theory, to examine citizens' use of government digital services and their perceptions of public value derived from such use. Based on data from a comprehensive national phone survey across 32 Mexican States with 4300 respondents, our structural equation modeling reveals that system quality is the most significant predictor of use and user satisfaction with digital services. Furthermore, use and user satisfaction lead to public value as measured by the conveniences, flexibilities, and process simplifications the system affords. Our study contributes to digital government literature by using the concept of public value as a measure of digital government services' impact and success from the perspective of the citizens.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48258,"journal":{"name":"Government Information Quarterly","volume":"41 2","pages":"Article 101936"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2024-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140815801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is a need in the literature for a synthesis focusing on e- participation's connection with public value creation using a systematic and comprehensive approach. This study employs a systematic literature review to collect, examine, and synthesize prior findings, aiming to investigate public value creation through e-participation initiatives, including their facilitators and barriers. By reviewing sixty-four peer-reviewed studies indexed by Web of Science and Scopus, this research demonstrates that e-participation initiatives and efforts can generate public value. Nevertheless, several factors are pivotal for the success and sustainability of these initiatives.

The vision and objectives how DT should be realized on state level is portrayed in well-crafted DT policies.

From the perspective of the whole process of OGD utilization, ecosystems have various types of ecological characteristics such as data flow, information expression and value realization. To this end, this paper proposes a new perspective of viewing OGD ecosystems across data, information and business based on the theories of supernetworks, data value chains, information ecosystems and business ecosystems, and further explores the ecosystems through a case study in Guizhou, China. We conclude that the hierarchical division of OGD ecosystems as a whole is clearer, and the focus of each layer is more focused; the cross-level dynamics mechanism of the ecosystem, and the information transmission mechanism assumed by the information ecosystem make the three layers interact with each other; and the different actors play different roles in the three layers and occupy different ecological position.
