Neighborhood greenspace and brain imaging outcomes in older adults without dementia from three US Alzheimer's Disease Research Centers
A comparative study of water allocation and drought in two US states
Issues of water allocation, especially in times of prolonged drought, are increasingly common in the US. The lack of a national policy regarding water allocation means that allocation schemes are the purview of states, except in some cases of interstate water allocation. State supremacy in this policy arena means that there are, in effect, 50 different water allocation policies in the US, reflecting different political realities, legal foundation…
Regional Disparities and Risk Factors in US Drinking Water Violations
Objective High‐profile cases such as the 2022 drinking water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi, along with numerous ongoing wastewater violations in Alabama and elsewhere, raise persistent environmental justice concerns. Despite nearly $40 billion allocated for drinking water and wastewater infrastructure under the 2021 Infrastructure Act, states vary in their ability and willingness to serve historically underserved communities. This study aims to …

Explaining State Allocation Shares Under the Water Quality Act of 1987
What is the basis of the allocation of federal funding for wastewater treatment infrastructure? The Water Quality Act of 1987 changed the ways in which the national government helped to offset the costs of compliance with the Clean Water Act by changing the scheme to allocate grant funds to states. However, the available literature provides no clues as to how the allocations for each state were determined. Our model to predict state shares under …
Digging Deeper
Objective This study assesses the factors associated with the identification of oil and gas violations as reported by street‐level bureaucrats, for example, oil and gas inspectors. Findings, we suggest, contribute to broader debates about regulatory compliance and environmental governance. Methods To accomplish the above, we built a novel dataset of over 300,000 oil and gas inspectors conducted in Pennsylvania between 2010 and 2022 along with a r…
Does institutional location matter? The effect of agency type on resource distribution for nonpoint water pollution
With the rejuvenated emphasis on nonpoint pollution under the Water Quality Act (WQA) of 1987, states seek ways to address nonpoint pollution sources. States can use Clean Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF) to address nonpoint needs; these funds are administered by state agencies, and funding decisions are typically made by agency personnel. While some states have aggressively funded nonpoint projects, other states have been much more reticent. …
Using punctuated equilibrium theory to explain changes in policy outputs
This article explores the utility of punctuated equilibrium (PE) theory in explaining revolutionary organizational change in the public sector and its effects on policy implementation, with a focus on the United States Coast Guard. We illustrate our model using data from in‐depth interviews with current and former senior Coast Guard officers and enlisted personnel, as well as secondary sources such as historical accounts and budget data. Through …
Neurobehavioral Mechanisms Influencing the Association Between Generativity, the Desire to Promote Well-Being of Younger Generations, and Purpose in Life in Older Adults at Risk for Alzheimer’s Diseas…
These findings provide insight into how the brain supports complex social behavior and, separately, purpose in life in at-risk aging. Affectionate social support may be a putative target process to enhance purpose in life in older adults. This knowledge contributes to future developments of personalized interventions that promote healthy aging
Explaining state efforts to create Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) agreements
Objectives With the rejuvenated emphasis on nonpoint pollution under the Water Quality Act (WQA) of 1987, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began to face an onslaught of lawsuits designed to pressure the EPA to enforce the requirements of Section 319 of the WQA to address nonpoint pollution. Known as Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) agreements, the purpose of these plans was to limit the amount of polluted runoff reaching a state's waterways. …

Assessing the Performance Advantage of Public-Private Partnerships
Framing Water Infrastructure for Climate Resilience
As the effects of climate change become more acute, the search for solutions to a growing infrastructure crisis becomes increasingly important. In this commentary, we offer some approaches to guide our collective thinking about the importance of governance regimes related to water infrastructure, as well as a framework for ways to think about infrastructure solutions that move beyond traditional “gray” solutions to more natural solutions that can…
Drilling Setbacks vs Government Takings
State policymaking is at the center of many oil and gas related disputes. Driven by the promise of affordable energy, economic development, and new revenues, supporters of oil and gas have pushed for policies designed to nurture the oil and gas industry, whereas opponents have emphasized a myriad of environmental threats and disruptions. Statewide ballot initiatives related to oil gas extraction offer a particularly useful lens to examine the pre…
Dobbs , American Federalism, and State Abortion Policymaking
The U.S. Supreme Court’s June 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization overturning Roe v. Wade shifted abortion-policy decision-making from the national level to the state level and opened the door for states to individually determine the level of protection for reproductive rights. We examine state actions following Dobbs and discuss the near-term implications of the decision for federalism and state governments. One effect …
The 1990s party realignment of U.S. presidential elections
Introduction This paper addresses the issue of partisan polarization in the U.S. in presidential voting at the county level. The literature on the growing partisan sorting and/or polarization is extensive, and controversies are pervasive. This paper focuses on the timing and sequence of changes in partisan vote shares at the county level from 1952 through the 2020 election. Methods We apply confirmatory factor analysis to identify the structures …
Buying innovation
Innovation policy combines systems and organizations that may intentionally or unintentionally influence innovation. Public Procurement and innovation are associated in two separate ways: public procurement can be used as a tool to stimulate innovation resulting in a new type of product or to open the marketplace for innovation without a specific product. The purpose of this article is to examine the procurement process's emphasis on competition …
Why collaborate? Exploring the role of organizational motivations in cross‐sector watershed collaboration
As governments turn to cross‐sector collaboration to address complex watershed pollution problems, questions of how to manage collaborative efforts are brought to the fore. Chief among the challenges is how to determine the necessary stakeholders to bring to the table and, concomitantly, how to incentivize organizations from different sectors to work collaboratively in order to address these complex problems. While work has been done to explore i…
Introduction to the Symposium
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (P.L 177-58) authorized some $1.2 trillion to invest in infrastructure in the United States. The largest infrastructure investment in a generation, the bill combined funds for traditional infrastructure (roads, bridges, water, ports, etc.) with money for broadband internet, electric vehicle charging, clean energy, and other uses. However, only a small portion of the funds are available to address…
Neuropsychological Correlates of Changes in Driving Behavior Among Clinically Healthy Older Adults
Attentional control is a key moderator of change over time in driving space but not driving performance in older adults. We speculate on mechanisms that may relate attentional control ability to modifications of driving behaviors
Politics or need? Explaining state protective measures in the coronavirus pandemic
Objective We explain evolving policy choices made by all 50 states in response to the coronavirus (COVID‐19) pandemic in the United States against the background of each state's political and public health landscape. Method We create an index of eight state preventative measures and explain variation in that index by infection and death rates, vaccination rates, support for President Trump in 2020, and the political party of the governor. We cont…
Introduction to the symposium
Objective This article reviews the extant literature on southern politics and gun/firearm ownership in the South as a precursor to three symposium papers. Methods We employ standard literature review techniques to synthesize two significant bodies of literature. The latter part of the article introduces the three papers in the symposium. Results We find that the papers in this symposium share two common themes: continued southern distinctiveness,…
Explaining state differences in firearm legislation
Objective This article explores choices made by states in terms of opposition or support of firearm policies to determine what drives firearm restrictiveness and whether it varies by region. Methods Utilizing standard explanators of state policy choices, we employ a 50‐state pooled regression model, using data spanning 25 years to evaluate drivers of state policy decisions in terms of regional firearm restrictiveness. Results Evaluating firearm r…
K ingdon's “Streams” Model at Thirty
John Kingdon's multiple‐streams model, developed to explain the policy formulation process, is often cited in the policy literature, and remains a staple of policy courses. In spite of critiques suggesting Kingdon's work is theoretically shaky and difficult to observe empirically, the work seems to retain a prominent place in the policy literature, garnering hundreds of citations since its publication. This article provides a review of the litera…
The Distributional Impacts of Privatization in National Water-Quality Policy
This research addresses the role of privatization in a major national environmental program and the implications of that involvement on the ability of the program to meet national policy objectives. The study draws a distinction between "formal" and "informal" privatization and suggests that informal privatization may result in less desirable public outcomes. Using data from a 50-state study of the State Revolving Loan Fund program, a series of m…
State Implementation of Federal Environmental Policy
The Clean Water State Revolving fund (CWSRF) program provides states with significant discretion to design, implement, and administer the program to meet their water quality needs. An important aspect of the program is the decision whether to leverage existing funds to generate additional capital for loans. This article seeks to explain the leveraging decision process, using three models as explanators. We conceive leveraging as a two‐stage proce…
Seeking Patterns in Chaos
The federal government’s response the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has been marked by a series of apparently disjointed, chaotic, and confusing statements and actions on the part of both the White House and federal agencies charged with coordinating the federal response. These actions have left many state governors (and citizens) in a position to address the effects of the pandemic in a haphazard and atomistic manner. In this essay, we c…
Government and Market Pathologies of Privatization
The recent growth in the number of privately operated and privately owned prisons in the United States focuses our attention on the nature of the privatization arrangements employed in this setting. This article argues that the privatization of correctional facilities is best understood as a combination of government failures, market failures, and political incentives. Using a case‐study approach to examine prison privatization in Mississippi, th…
In Search of Middle Ground
This article argues against privatization and for the use of an existing organizational arrangement, one that may take advantage of private-sector efficiencies while maintaining public accountability. Public authorities are already in widespread use around the nation at all levels of government, yet the utility of the public authority as a middle ground between traditional (bureaucratic) public-sector organizational forms and privatization has ye…
Are We Really on the Same Page? An Empirical Examination of Value Congruence Between Public Sector and Nonprofit Sector Managers
Much attention has recently been paid to comparative work in the public and private sectors looking at work values, motivations, and the impact of government reform movements in organizations. Several studies have compared the public and private sectors in the dimension of values; but none have questioned the popular assumption that nonprofit and public managers share the same or a similar set of values or the value expectations they have for eac…

Institutional Variation, Professionalization, and State Implementation Choices
The question of the effect of administrative arrangements on program administration and program outcomes is a central question for those interested in policy implementation. In the implementation of federal programs, the specific state-level administrative arrangements can have a significant impact not only on resource distribution patterns, but also on the ability of involved agencies to secure adequate state resources for the program. This pape…
Building Resilience Through Collaboration Between Grassroots Citizen Groups and Governments
As sea level rise grows in importance as a public policy issue, coastal communities must search for alternative strategies to develop resilience to the growing threat. One way to tap into existing resources involves partnerships between local governments and citizen-based environmental organizations to explore strategies aimed at mitigating the effects of sea level rise and recurrent flooding in coastal communities. This article presents two case…
Partisan politics or public-health need
States' policy decisions regarding the Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010 have often been explained as predominantly, if not solely, partisan. Might rival explanations also apply? Using a cross-sectional 50-state regression model, we studied standard political variables coupled with public-health indicators. This work differs from existing research by employing a dependent variable of five additive measures of ACA support, examining the impact of …
Developing Infrastructure Through the Use of Tax Increment Financing
The use of tax increment finance (TIF) arrangements to finance capital-intensive infrastructure needs is not a new concept, but it is gaining traction in many states and municipalities. This article presents the case of the Town Center project in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and the use of a TIF to provide infrastructure for the project. The authors find that the success of the TIF is because of a combination of a reduction in public risk, careful p…

Explaining State Differences in the Implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
Objective The passage of the Affordable Care Act of 2010 has been one of the most hotly debated policy issues in recent memory. Southern state politicians seem particularly opposed to the law, but data suggest that citizens of southern states would benefit from the law. This article explores the choices made by states in terms of their acceptance and implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Healthcare Act (PPACA). Methods Employing…
Defining Privatization
The debate over an appropriate definition of privatization has been underway for nearly 30 years; Dominy’s offering provides an additional voice to that debate. In response to Dominy, the author suggests that Dominy’s typology of privatization is incomplete, empirically suspect, and ignores much of the previous theoretical work in the field. Whereas such voices are both useful and intellectually stimulating, Dominy’s typology may ultimately prove…
State Implementation of National Water Quality Policy
The State Revolving Fund program represents a major shift in the ways governments address water quality needs. Using John Kingdon’s concept of policy streams, this study examines the formal targeting mechanisms employed by states to meet these goals and whether use of these mechanisms actually results in a greater percentage of program resources allocated to the targeted communities. The findings include the following: (a) targeting mechanisms ar…

Assessing Value Differences Between Leaders of Two Social Venture Types
This study considers key value differences between leaders of two types of social ventures: for-profit social benefit corporations and nonprofit organizations. The research question asks to what degree the value sets of leaders of benefit corporations are congruent with those of similarly situated individuals in nonprofit organizations. The results show the values of leaders working in benefit corporations and nonprofit organizations are in many …

Assessing Partnerships Between the Military and Civilian Agencies to Meet Transitioning Service Members' Needs
This study examines partnerships between the military and local communities by exploring communication channels of the U.S. military and civilian agencies that provide services to transitioning military members. This article reports on a study conducted in 2013 in the Hampton Roads, Virginia area, designed to determine the degree to which the military enters into partnerships with civilian service providers. We find that navy agencies in Hampton …
Collaborative Federalism and the Emerging Role of Local Nonprofits in Water Quality Implementation
While much has been written about collaborative federalism, the focus of this research has been on collaboration between governmental agencies at the national, state, and local levels. However, a growing body of evidence suggests there is a greater role available for nongovernmental actors in collaborative federalism. This article presents a case in which a local grassroots environmental nonprofit organization plays a critical role in the impleme…
A Tangled Web of Principals and Agents
The explosion on the D eepwater H orizon oil rig in A pril 2010 resulted in the largest oil spill in U . S . waters. In the aftermath of the explosion, many sought answers to what appeared to be a lack of effective oversight of the well's owner, B ritish P etroleum ( BP ). Using multi‐actor principal–agent theory as our framework, we examine the relationships between citizens, the M inerals M anagement S ervice ( MMS ), BP , and BP 's partners in…
Public Works Service Arrangements in the 21st Century
As the new millennium begins, the debate about how best to provide, produce, and deliver public works and infrastructure services to a growing population increases in intensity. The authors argue that traditional definitions of “privatization” and “public-private partnerships” limit thinking about the options available to infrastructure policy makers and that a broader definition of potential arrangements that better captures the nature of the re…

Water Policy Networks in the United States
Evidence suggests that the US water sector is characterised by multiple arrays but not an overarching sector‐wide arrangement encompassing all the major decision‐making participants. The water policy field is marked by considerable fragmentation in structure, as well as by largely‐uncoordinated policy. Several forces ‐ including ‘metapolicy’ shifts, professionalism and alterations in professional dominance, and the tension between advocates of mo…
Institutional Arrangements in an Age of New Federalism
This article examines the nature and extent of private-sector involvement in the design, implementation, and administration of the State Revolving Fund (SRF) program, an environmental infrastructure financing program. Using data from two 50-state surveys of state SRF coordinators and from case-study interviews with key SRF personnel, the article concludes that (a) the particular state context helps determine the degree to which states must rely o…

Current Concepts in Mild Cognitive Impairment
The field of aging and dementia is focusing on the characterization of the earliest stages of cognitive impairment. Recent research has identified a transitional state between the cognitive changes of normal aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD), known as mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Mild cognitive impairment refers to the clinical condition between normal aging and AD in which persons experience memory loss to a greater extent than one would ex…

Welfare Reform, Mississippi Style
Through an examination of the implementation of the 1996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act in the state of Mississippi, we explore the adequacy of traditional two‐actor principal‐agent theory. Using this as our lens, we suggest that the choices made by Mississippi in the area of welfare reform to privatize much of the work and to add several layers to the existing principal‐agent relationship substantially reduced accountability an…

Whither Fema? Hurricane Katrina and Fema's Response to the Gulf Coast
The devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005 placed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) directly in the public spotlight. The agency came under tremendous criticism for its response, and its director resigned shortly after the hurricane. This article identifies and develops four themes (organizational location, organizational leadership, organizational emphasis, and federalism) drawn from the general literature in public …

Reaching for the Philosopher’s Stone
When Hurricane Katrina made landfall on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in August 2005, it immediately overwhelmed the abilities of local and state emergency management officials to respond to the ensuing disaster. Although the U.S. Coast Guard and some military units were on scene shortly after the passage of the storm, there seemed to be interminable delays before the military forces began to arrive in numbers to both provide humanitarian relief and…
