Are Donors Sensitive to the Price of Giving? A Meta-Analytical Assessment
How the price of giving affects charitable donations has been subject to extensive scrutiny in the literature, but the empirical evidence so far has been inconsistent. We conduct a meta-analysis to synthesize the empirical findings on the price-donation relationship, estimate a generalized effect and explore underlying moderators. After combining 386 effect sizes from 52 existing studies, we find that the price of giving generally has a significa…
Trading Voice for Viability? The Impact of Marketization on Nonprofits' Critical Voice
Propelled by the New Public Management reforms, the infusion of market values in the public‐nonprofit interface is argued to have increased nonprofit organizations' (NPOs) capacity to influence public policy through increased access to government, yet often at the cost of abandoning their critical stance toward the said government. Drawing on cross‐country survey data collected from NPOs across three different welfare states (N = 779), this study…
Exploring the Moderators of the Relationship Between Nonprofit Sector Size and Its Societal Impact: A Meta-Analysis
Assessing the impact of the nonprofit sector on society has been one of the most fundamental yet challenging questions in public and nonprofit management scholarship. Built on a recent systematic literature review published in VOLUNTAS (Cheng and Choi in Int J Volunt Nonprofit Organ 33:1245–1255, 2022), our meta-analysis synthesizes the existing literature from multiple disciplines and fills this critical knowledge gap. Using 357 effects from 29 …
Meta-Analysis for Nonprofit Research: Synthesizing Quantitative Evidence for Knowledge Advancement
The past two decades have witnessed massive growth in the amount of quantitative research in nonprofit studies. Despite the large number of studies, findings from these studies have not always been consistent and cumulative. The diverse and competing findings constitute a barrier to offering clear, coherent knowledge for both research and practice. To further advance nonprofit studies, some have called for meta-analysis to synthesize inconsistent…
Meta-Analysis of Collaboration and Performance: Moderating Tests of Sectoral Differences in Collaborative Performance
Over the past few decades, collaboration has flourished in the public administration and policy fields as a rational means to solve complex issues and improve public service performance. Through a meta-analysis of 26 studies with 251 effect sizes, this investigation provides novel perspectives for understanding the effects of different collaborative partnerships on performance. To test these mechanisms, we applied various social science theories,…
Institutional Constraints, Market Competition, and Revenue Strategies: Evidence from Canadian Social Enterprises
This study examines the impact of external environment on social enterprises’ revenues strategies. Using a national survey of 1250 social enterprises in Canada, this study tests whether institutional constraints and market competition affect commercialization and revenue diversification of social enterprises. The results suggest that social enterprises’ revenue strategies are associated with both institutional constraints and market competition. …
Breaking the nonprofit starvation cycle? An experimental test
Donors' overhead aversion leads to a starvation cycle that hampers the ability of nonprofits to fulfill their missions. This study provides new evidence and suggests possible solutions to break the starvation cycle. Drawing on agency theory, this study adopts a between-subject experimental design to test two strategies for nonprofits with high overhead that seek to overcome donors' overhead aversion. The results suggest that donors are indeed tro…
Restricted Revenues and Nonprofit Service Delivery: The Roles of Financial Discretion
The proposition that restricted revenues inhibit nonprofit service delivery by reducing their financial discretion has accumulated in the academic literature but has not been empirically tested. Using a sample of arts and culture nonprofits in the USA, this study examines whether the proposition is upheld through a resource dependence lens. The results suggest that restricted revenues limit nonprofits’ efforts to seek other sources of revenue, wh…
Decomposing the Effect of Commercialization on Nonprofit Donations
Whether commercialization crowds out nonprofit donations has been a concern for nonprofit professionals and scholars. If the crowding-out effect exists, is it because of donors’ reactions to nonprofit commercialization or nonprofits’ decisions to reduce efforts in fundraising? Using data from the National Center for Charitable Statistics on human service nonprofit organizations in the USA, this study examines the relationship between commercial r…
