公共决策中知识利用的研究具有重要的实践和理论意义。因此,在理解和解释知识利用过程方面已经做了大量的工作(见Rich和Oh, 1993年)。然而,我们可以很容易地发现,这些研究明显缺乏对知识使用的广泛理解(Mandell and Sauter, 1984)。作为一个整体,知识利用领域的实证研究遭受了几个关键问题(见Rich, 1991; Oh, 1996)。更重要的是,似乎存在着需要填补的严重的概念和方法差距。本文从评价的角度对“知识利用”的度量问题进行了探讨,并对今后的研究提出了一些建议。
Studies of knowledge utilization in public policy-making have important practical and theoretical implications. Accordingly, a voluminous work has been done on understanding and explaining the process of knowledge utilization (see Rich and Oh, 1993). However, we can easily find that there is the conspicuous absence of a greatly expanded understanding of the use of knowledge from those studies (Mandell and Sauter, 1984). Taken as a whole, empirical studies in the area of knowledge utilization have suffered from several critical problems (see Rich, 1991; Oh, 1996a). More importantly, there appears to be serious conceptual and methodological gaps which need to be filled. This article focuses on one of the most significant methodological problems: measuring “knowledge utilization” from an evaluation perspective and offers some suggestions for future studies.
