An informal way of measuring the value of a concept is whether it has currency with students. Public service motivation (PSM) succeeds on this test—based on our diverse experiences, students relate easily to the idea. PSM also has currency among international scholars—witness the scholarly effort devoted to PSM. We come to the concept as those who believe it has validity and continuing promise. However, instead of focusing on its evident strengths, in this short article we focus on shortcomings and opportunities for improvement.
