公众行贿意愿研究——来自G省的调查数据

Study on the Public's Willingness to Pay Bribes——Based on the Survey Data of G Province

长期以来,学术界对公众行贿导致公职人员腐败的实证研究乏善可陈。基于G省2014年公众腐败感知的问卷调查统计发现,为了办事方便,有30%~44%的公众愿意向公职人员行贿。试图从腐败容忍度、腐败感知程度和腐败经历三个维度来解释个体行贿意愿之间的差异。通过聚类Logit回归模型研究发现,在其他条件不变的情况下,腐败容忍度越高,公众行贿的几率越高;感知到的腐败程度越高,公众行贿的几率就越高;腐败经历显著地提高了公众的行贿几率。

For a long time,there has been a scarcity of research on officials＇ corruption due to the public＇s bribing. Based on a survey of G Province in 2014,it was found that for the sake of convenience in conducting business with the government,30% to 44% people would like to pay bribes. To explore the differences of individuals＇ willingness to pay bribes,three dimensions including corruption tolerance,corruption perception and past corruption experience were constructed. An analysis of the logit regression model found that all the other factors being equal,the higher the public＇s corruption tolerance is,the more likely they are to pay bribes; the more corruptions the public perceive,the more likely they are to pay bribes; and those who have more corruption experiences are more likely to pay bribes than those not.
