摘要

目前,没有标准化的、有效的非营利组织能力衡量标准,这使得跨组织的比较和研究几乎不可能。此外,这些缺点阻碍了对非营利从业者和教育者的建议,阻碍了专业和教育课程的发展。本文运用探索性因子分析和验证性因子分析的方法,提出了一种评价非营利组织能力的新方法。以美国非营利组织为样本(N=1,216),六因素模型解释了非营利组织能力总方差的69.6%。这六个因素及其方差分别为:(1)董事会14.8%,(2)外部环境影响13.4%,(3)项目开发11.9%,(4)任务中心性11.4%,(5)管理能力9.8%,(6)资金8.6%。一个标准化的衡量标准,比如这里创建的,允许跨非营利子部门和跨组织的研究以更系统的方式进行。如果没有跨组织的比较,我们就无法知道我们是否真的在教授最佳实践。

Creating and Validating a Capacity Measure for Nonprofit Organizations
Currently, there is no standardized, validated measure of nonprofit capacity that makes cross-organizational comparisons and research studies almost impossible. In addition, these shortcomings impede suggestions for nonprofit practitioners and educators, hindering the development of professional and educational curricula. This paper presents a new measure of nonprofit capacity based on the utilization of exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. With a national sample of U.S.-based nonprofit organizations (N=1,216), the six factor model explained 69.6% of total variance in nonprofit capacity. Those six factors and respective variance are: (1) board 14.8%, (2) the influence of the external environment 13.4%, (3) program development 11.9%, (4) mission centrality 11.4%, (5) management capacities 9.8%, and (6) funding 8.6%. A standardized measure, such as the one created here, allows research across nonprofit subsectors and for cross-organizational research in a more systematic way. Without cross-organization comparisons, we cannot know if we are truly teaching best practices.
