This non-experimental quantitative study found a best-fit structural model of professionalism among 400 Lupong Tagapamayapa [LP] (Pacification) members in the barangays of Panabo City. Statistical tools used in analyzing data were the weighted mean, Pearson r, multiple linear regression, and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results exposed the high-level work performance, public leadership, public service motivation, and professionalism of the Lupong Tagapamayapa. Moreover, the correlation test yielded a significant linear relationship between leadership and professionalism and public service motivation and professionalism. However, the relationship between work performance and professionalism was insignificant. Subsequently, the regression result revealed a combined predictive capability of work performance, leadership, and public service motivation on professionalism. Furthermore, the structural equation modeling revealed that public leadership and public service motivation are predictors of professionalism with specific manifest variables: accountability and network governance for public leadership; compassion and self-sacrifice for public service motivation. These manifest variables can only predict professional ethos and challenge under the professionalism construct. Finally, the studys findings have implications for effective and efficient mediation protocols in the barangays. The paper contained further discussions and inferences about the results.

Successfully changing the mode of regulation in clinical priority setting: how organisational factors contributed to establishing the Norwegian priority guidelines for specialist health care services

This article investigates factors that contributed to the successful introduction of 33 priority guidelines for Norwegian specialist health care from 2008 to 2012. The guidelines constituted an important step in changing the regulation of clinical priority setting from largely self-regulation by medical professionals to a more centralised and hierarchical form, and therefore, resistance from the medical profession was expected. My focus is on organisational factors within the project that developed the guidelines, using policy documents and project documents as the main source of data. I find that the project was characterised by a high level of autonomy in terms of how it was organised and the actors included, with significant capacity for action in terms of both structure and personnel, and a broad inclusion of affected actors. The priority guideline project was dominated by medical professionals, and its organisation did not represent a radical break with established traditions of medical professional self-regulation. Although organisational autonomy, action capacity and broad inclusion were clearly of importance, the project's compliance with historical traditions and norms of medical governance stands out as the key factor in understanding the successful establishment of the priority guidelines.

“…Subsequent research on public administration has been divided into two major categories: (1) the use of governance as an abstract concept representing a change in the way public o ces are governed, and (2) the use of governance as a concrete concept in the same way as corporate governance, signifying compliance with laws and regulations and proper operational management of organizations. Examples of the former are Compton et al (2022) and Dickson (2016), while Brunet and Aubry (2016) and Almquist et al (2013) represent the latter. Governance in the private sector is often used with a speci c meaning related to scal accountability.…”

Characteristics and Changes in Japanese Public Administration Research: Statistical Content Analyses of Article Titles in Public Administration Review Quarterly(1978–2019)

The objective of this study is to understand features of Japan’s public administration research and the changes it has undergone by using statistical content analyses. To this end, this study quantitatively explains research trends in postwar administrative studies in Japan by statistically analyzing article titles from the Public Administration Review Quarterly over the course of nearly 40 years. Co-occurrence network and correspondence analyzes revealed the changes in research interests. There was substantially more research on administrative reforms through the postwar Showa and Heisei eras. The configuration of the correspondence analysis indicates that the first dimension is concerned with administrative reforms, the second with historical events or administrative systems, and the third with evaluations and kaizen (improvement). Co-occurrence network analysis showed that two extracted compound words, the United States and the United Kingdom, were very common in studies during the Showa era (1978–1988). This suggests that Japan’s public administration was strongly influenced by the Western world during this period. Japan’s own policies and institutions became a feature of these studies during the Heisei era (1989–2018). Compared with the results of the analysis of the author’s previous studies on another Japanese administrative studies journal, there are both parts of the results that are similar. One commonality of the results of the analysis is that the dimension related to administrative reform was found in the correspondence analysis. In the present study, the first principal component was administrative reform, and Moteki’s (2020) correspondence analysis also found “reform,” “policy evaluation” and “governance” as characteristic extracted terms related to the 2000s. After World War II, Japanese public administration studies were strongly influenced by their American counterparts, which confirmed the managerial approach in the form of the rise of research on administrative reform. In this connection, the configuration figure of the second and third dimensions of the correspondence analysis in this study reveals “policy evaluation” and “improvement” (kaizen). This quantitative analysis also confirmed changes in the characteristics of Japanese public administration. Featured words like governance, local government, and policy evaluation in the figure of the Heisei era reaffirmed the changes in the direction of administrative studies.
