自20世纪70年代末田纳西州开始实施绩效资助以来，大约有30个州在某个时候尝试了一种包括一系列指标绩效的资助模式。本研究的目的是捕捉在公立全州社区学院系统的绩效资金的现状，并评估在国家一级收集的绩效指标。数据是通过亚拉巴马大学教育政策中心进行的2012年财政和入学问题调查获得的。该调查由社区学院州主任全国理事会管理，从49个州获得了50份答复。并不是每个调查对象都回答了每个调查项目。调查结果显示，有19个州为社区学院提供了绩效资金，其中6个州根据绩效分配了至少10%的州资金。对州一级指标（不完全是业绩供资）的分析表明，对过程指标的重视程度有所下降，对产出的重视程度有所提高。基于绩效的基础资金分配和纳入产出措施，捕捉中间指标的成功是符合绩效资金2.0的原则，最近在文献中讨论的一种新形式的绩效资金。未来的研究应包括跟踪目前的研究结果随着时间的推移，并扩大现有的文献是否绩效资金影响的结果。
Since the initiation of performance funding in Tennessee in the late 1970s, approximately 30 states have, at some point, attempted a funding model that includes performance on a set of indicators. The purpose of the present study was to capture the current status of performance funding in public statewide community college systems and to assess which performance indicators were collected at the state level. Data were obtained through the 2012 Survey of Finance and Access Issues conducted by the Education Policy Center at the University of Alabama. The survey was administered to the National Council of State Directors of Community Colleges, and 50 responses were obtained from 49 states. Not every survey respondent answered each survey item. Findings showed that 19 states used performance funding for community colleges, with six of those states allocating at least 10% of state funds based on performance. An analysis of indicators captured at the state level (not exclusively for performance funding) showed a decline of emphasis on process indicators and greater emphasis on outputs. The performance-based distribution of base funding and the inclusion of output measures that capture intermediate indicators of success are consistent with the principles of Performance Funding 2.0, a new form of performance funding recently discussed in the literature. Future research should include tracking the current findings over time and expanding the existing literature on whether performance funding influences outcomes.
