The overall goal of the staff of the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) is to develop specific, quantifiable, and easily understandable performance indicators for the region’s transportation system that better inform elected officials and policy boards of the broad array of choices for investing public and private funds. SCAG’s performance indicators are intended to capture the important relationships between transportation and a diversity of public policy concerns. The seven performance indicators used in the preparation of the 1997 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) are mobility, accessibility, environment, cost-effectiveness, reliability, safety, and customer satisfaction. SCAG applies these performance indicators to each of its 13 subregions and to the region as a whole. The federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 and Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, and SCAG’s 1994 Regional Mobility Element, set the stage for the abandonment of the old and popular level of service measure. SCAG’s performance indicators approach the concept of performance from the perspective of the users of the transportation system, in contrast to traditional approaches that focused more on facilities and vehicles. SCAG is currently at approximately the midpoint in the development of the 1997 RTP and therefore has considerable practice in working with the performance indicators. This experience confirms the value of performance indicators as a planning tool.

Currently there are about 500 institutions throughout Malaysia which offer tertiary education level. They consist of public and private colleges. However, this variety will lead to confusion among the Malaysians in order to choose the right places to further their studies. The aim of this study is to select and rank the significant factor which influences the selection of university between IPTA and IPTS. By approaching the main objective, the sub-objective; to determine the most preferred university based on the associated factor can also be examined. Fuzzy TOPSIS (Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) is one of the best methods to assess this kind of multi-criteria decision-making problem. The alternative of this research will be the factors influencing Malaysians’ choice of universities which are affiliation, course offered, cost of education and reputation. While the criteria will be IPTA and IPTS. The data was collected by interviewing experts in both fields; public and private sectors. The result referred by the value of closeness coefficient of each alternative is determined in order to rank those alternatives (factors).

This study analyzes the effects of college quality and individual academic background on selected job performance measures for officers working in professional and managerial jobs in the U.S. Navy. The study analyzes performance indicators at selected career points for cohorts in two occupational groups. Among staff personnel, who perform mostly administrative and support functions, the authors find that graduates of private schools, regardless of college quality, received better performance appraisals than did other officers. Among line personnel, who perform jobs on ships and submarines and in aviation, graduates of top-rated schools, both public and private, received better appraisals during the early career period. Within both occupational groups, graduates of top-rated private schools were more likely than other officers to be promoted at the up-or-out point. The results are consistent with prior studies that find an earnings premium attached to attendance at elite private colleges.

This study examines the patterns of public and private juvenile placements in one of the larger probation departments in Southern California. About two-thirds of the juveniles sent to institutional placements were placed in a private setting, and one-third were assigned to public institutions. This pattern was due to financial arrangements between the state and the county government. There were indications that more juveniles with the traditional “delinquent” background were placed in public institutions, while juveniles with individual problems were more likely to be sent to private placements. The policy implications of these patterns are analyzed in the article.
