摘要(Abstract):
本期的"当季英文佳作评介"选取了最近发表在国际顶尖公共管理学、政治学以及经济学期刊上4篇采用实地试验方法的前沿文章,即采用实验室实地实验(Lab-in-the-field Experiment)研究巴基斯坦民众对国家和非国家行为体的信任,采用认可实验(Endorsement Experiment)研究韩国公务员对于部长级官员的认可,采用田野实验(Field Experiment)研究非政府组织对于中国地方官员环保合规行为的监管,采用问卷实验(Survey Experiment)研究台湾地区官员在公共服务提供中的民族歧视问题。本文分别从研究概述、实验环境、实验方法及过程、实验结果 4个方面对所选文章进行评介,以期助益中国公共管理实地试验研究方法的应用与发展。

- (1)受期刊数据的可得性限制,每本期刊文献搜集的起始年份并不一致。另外,选择JPE和AJPS正好代表了经济学和政治学兄弟期刊,以考察公共管理、政治学、经济学在实验方法上的共性与特性。此处感谢黄桂花、保瑞、姜美全3位同学对于这7本期刊的梳理与统计,当然,文责自负。
- (2)发文数量见图1,由于接下来是比较公共管理相关领域的期刊实地试验发文特征,此处只列出了除JPE之外的6本期刊的发文数量。
- (1)这4篇文章均出自本人与研究生每周seminar的文献分享,此处感谢周淼然、周丹萍、姜美全与吴亚美4位同学对文献的梳理,同时也感谢所有参与研讨的学生们的智慧贡献。当然,文责自负。由于篇幅所限,本文仅展示简要版本,完整版请查阅公众号:经管论文共同体。
- (2)实验室实地实验(Lab-in-the-field Experiment)融合了实验室实验(lab experiment)和实地实验(field experiment),使用来自实验室的标准化范式,在自然环境中对相关人群进行实验。
- (1)研究在初步设计时还包括国家消极实验、非国家积极实验和非国家消极实验等试点性(Piloted)实验,这些实验提供的信息也基于真实的媒体报道,但其结果的影响都大同小异,基于统计力等实际因素的考虑,仅扩大SP实验的规模。
- (1)接触实验(Contacting experiments)广泛用于了解地方官员对公民的反应。通过随机改变与官员联系的公民的身份或公民诉求的内容,以了解官员对谁以及何种信息更为敏感。
- (1)Public Administration Review在2020年第1期开辟了行为公共管理学的专栏。
