AbstractOrganizational factors have frequently shown a significant influence on the use of performance information by public managers, but the study of task-related factors has been neglected. Combining insights from public administration, organizational studies, and a behavioural approach, this article investigates whether some task characteristics influence the use of performance information by public managers. Drawing on an e-mail survey on managers working in Italian medium-size municipalities, an empirical analysis was developed. Findings show that task analysability and task variability directly affect performance information use by public managers. Task interdependence shows an indirect effect on performance information use through its availability.

Managerial Perspective

This article explores the relationship between performance information use for different functions based on two of Moynihan’s analyses and a managerial perspective, utilizing passive and purposeful use. The results of this study suggest that both accountability and managers’ proximity to the performance system exert strong influence on the use of performance information in the public sector. In terms of organizational factors, data quality and meaningful measures are associated with performance information use. On the other hand, external attention has no effect on performance information use regardless of the types of performance information.
