摘要

公共行政的核心主张之一是,管理对公共实体的绩效至关重要。因此,量化组织管理的影响是对这一主张进行实证评估的核心。利用政府绩效项目(GPP)的新特征,我们评估了州级管理实践对美国各州信贷质量的影响。核心挑战——GPP数据和债券评级都采用有序等级的形式——提出了一种通用的解决方案,利用潜在结构(管理能力和信用质量)的多个指标,以及适当的测量模型。在描述了测量方法的特征之后,我们从GPP数据中得出管理能力分数,并使用三家评级机构的债券评级得出信用质量分数。然后,这些衍生的分数使我们能够测试美国各州的信贷质量与其相对管理能力的广泛方面之间的联系。总体而言,我们表明财务管理能力影响信贷质量,而其他形式的管理能力影响信贷质量的证据不太清楚。

Management Practices and State Bond Ratings
One of the central claims of public administration is that management matters for the performance of public entities. Quantifying the impact of organizational management is thus central to the empirical evaluation of this claim. Utilizing novel features of the Government Performance Project (GPP), we assess the impact of state-level management practices on the credit quality of US states. The central challenge - that both the GPP data and bond ratings take the form of ordinal grades - suggests a common solution utilizing multiple indicators of a latent construct (management capacity and credit quality) with appropriate measurement models. After describing the characteristics of the measurement approach, we derive management capacity scores from the GPP data and credit quality scores using bond ratings from the three rating agencies. These derived scores then allow us to test linkages between credit quality of the US states and broad aspects of their relative management capacity. On the whole, we show that financial management capacity influences credit quality, while the evidence is less clear that other forms of management capacity matter.
