Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 2003.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether states with performance budgeting and funding (PBF) programs had increased the effectiveness of their public institutions of higher education over the three years (1997 through 1999) considered in this study. To explore this question, two primary research questions, and six related secondary research questions are generated. The two primary research questions ask whether PBF programs had been effective in achieving their ultimate policy goal improved institutional performance. The six secondary research questions seek to determine the differential effects of various program characteristics on improved institutional performance.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The purpose of this study is to determine whether states with performance budgeting and funding (PBF) programs had increased the effectiveness of their public institutions of higher education over the three years (1997 through 1999) considered in this study. To explore this question, two primary research questions, and six related secondary research questions are generated. The two primary research questions ask whether PBF programs had been effective in achieving their ultimate policy goal improved institutional performance. The six secondary research questions seek to determine the differential effects of various program characteristics on improved institutional performance.
520 $a To accomplish these purposes, First Time in College (FTIC) graduation rate was used as the dependent variable and two types of independent variables, program variables and control independent variables, were considered. The program variables reflect PBF program characteristics of interest.{09}For this study, the unit of analysis is institution level and the study population is limited to public four-or-more-year institutions in the United States.
520 $a A descriptive analysis of trends is conducted to attain preliminary information on the research questions and the recently-developed Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) growth model analysis is applied to test PBF program effectiveness. According to the HLM analysis, the growth of graduation rates in state with PBF programs was not greater than in states without PBF programs. Interestingly, the growth of graduation rate at teaching-oriented institutions is not greater than that of research-oriented institutions. The graduation rates at institutions with low graduation rates in 1997 grew more than the graduation rates at institutions with high graduation rates in 1997.
520 $a The lack of growth in institutional graduation rates, however, does not mean that PBF programs failed to achieve their goals. More time may have been necessary for changes to become apparent, or changes might have appeared indirectly rather than directly. Concluding that PBF programs are not useful based simply on changes in graduation rate over a short period, then, is not advised. In consideration of the findings of this study, policy-makers are advised to sustain PBF programs long enough until such programs blear their fruits or are proven ineffective.
