• Abstract: Educated citizens are often considered more likely to report corruption; this belief shapes anti-corruption campaigns. However, we know little about how other factors may interact ... 一般认为受教育的公民更有可能揭露腐败。这种信念塑造了反腐运动。不过，我们对于其他因素如何与教育互动从而影响揭露腐败的意愿知之甚少。本文分析了巴布亚新几内亚的家庭调查。笔者发现，教育会激发人揭露不同类型的官员腐败的意愿是颇有根据的；而且，倘若受访者相信政府会解决腐败问题，情况就更是如此；中等或中等以上教育水平对于那些不太有兴趣举报机构的人也有着积极的影响。笔者建议学界和政策制定者关注国家以何种方式影响公民举报各种腐败的意愿。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]Copyright of Australian Journal of Political Science is the property of Routledge and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites ...
