摘要公共服务动机是当代公共行政学中的一个重要概念，它是指公共利益和利他行为的驱动力。虽然大量的实证研究，其性质和影响是可用的，鲜为人知的是PSM的起源。通过以往实证研究提供的线索，本文试图发展一个一般的理论，包括原因和后果的PSM。基于跨学科的方法，制度理论和动机心理学的元素融合在一起，融入PSM的操作理论。
Abstract Public service motivation (PSM) is a prominent concept within current Public Administration, as it refers to the drive for public interested and altruistic behaviour. Although substantial empirical research on its nature and its impact is available, little is known on the origins of PSM. Led by cues provided by previous empirical research, this article seeks to develop a general theory of PSM, encompassing both causes and consequences of PSM. Based on an interdisciplinary approach, elements of institutional theory and motivational psychology are fused together, blending into an operational theory of PSM.
