Competition, commercialization, and the evolution of nonprofit organizational structures
This article explores competition both in settings where nonprofits compete among themselves and where they compete with for-profits. Growing competition among nonprofits raises questions as to the impacts of this rivalry. How does competition affect nonprofit behavior and does it cause nonprofits to become more commercial in orientation? Does it alter organizational structures and does it cause nonprofits to become less focused on their charitab…
Nonprofit Equity: A Behavioral Model and Its Policy Implications
This article assumes that nonprofit decisionmakers have an incentive to earn and accumulate surpluses, and it suggests six reasons for this being the case. Based on the assumption that both the program outputs and the equity of a nonprofit yield satisfaction to its decisionmakers, a behavioral model is developed. This is used to derive a demand function for equity, which is then applied to a national sample of 6168 charitable nonprofits drawn by …

Alternative Approaches to Correcting Public Sector Inefficiency
Numerous proposals have been made for improving the provision of collective services. The major ones are explored including reduction of public sector size, introduction of greater competition into the provision of collective services, greater use of incentives to foster sector private sector production, direct substitution of private for public production, and redefinition of the outputs expected from collectively provided services. The advantag…

Social Efficiency and the Provision of Collective Services
Government inefficiency arises from failure of preference, production, and delivery The first occurs when government produces a different mix of collective services than is socially desirable; the second when government produces services less efficiently than it could at given cost levels; the third when the targeted beneficiaries fail to receive the intended level of services. A taxonomy of causes of each type of failure is developed and the con…

The Reward Structure for Part-Timers in Academe
Surprisingly little information is available on the earnings determinants of part-timers. This may reflect the absence of a source of detailed yearly data such as that provided for full-timers by the American Association of University Professors (AAUP)[5] or the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES)[13]. It is also because part-time employment is only now emerging as a subject worthy of further study. The absence of a body of literature…
The Structure of Salaries at American Universities
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the determinants of salary structure at American universities. Data from a national survey offaculty members are used in a regression equation to estimate the effects of publications, personal characteristics, geographical region, and field of specialization. The results suggest that those who publish are more highly rewarded than their unpublished peers, faculty engaged in teaching receive lower salaries t…
An Analysis of the Reward Structure in Two Disciplines
The purpose of this paper is to examine the rewards to full-time, male faculty at American universities in two fields: economics and education. A regression equation is used to estimate the relative and absolute returns to particular skills as of the 1972–73 academic year. A method is then given for quantifying the lifetime returns to publication, net of monetary benefits external to the university.Publishers are more highly rewarded than their u…
What Is an Article Worth
This paper suggests a methodology by which the monetary value of an article can be calculated. Three types of benefits are discussed and quantified: direct salary increments, promotion-related salary increments, and career-related option effects. Using data from a national cross-section of university economists, the authors compute lifetime returns for selected article categories by academic rank. Their results suggest that the returns to publica…
