Bad News and Quality Reputation among Users of Public Services

Abstract: About 30% of employees around the world work in public organizations (Hammouya, 1999), and employment tends to increase over time in public organizations dedicated to very relevant services, such as health, education, and social services (Derlien & Peters, 2008). In addition, for decades public organizations have contributed to strengthening economic growth and social welfare in modern societies (e.g., promoting great scientific advances). However, the reputation of public organizations among citizens is not v… Show more

“…The anchoring bias refers to estimations that individuals make based on an initial value or information that is adjusted to yield a final decision [ 28 ]. The anchoring bias has been confirmed in different contexts, such as negotiation [ 44 ], self-efficacy [ 45 ] performance [ 46 ], and service quality evaluations [ 47 ] This bias demonstrates that individuals usually make decisions that are in consonance with previous information existing in the context. They consider the initial option or adjust their decision based on that anchor and may choose a more similar option than they would have otherwise [ 48 ].…”

“…These changes aim to adapt to new ways of working and increase efficiency, profitability, and performance in the public sector [3]. Nevertheless, all these changes are having negative consequences on public employees since they are in charge of satisfying the growing demands of citizens in a context of constant change and with fewer resources [4,5].…”

“…Uma questão que chama a atenção para o viés de ancoragem é que ele varia de acordo com a situação ou público estudado: pessoas com menos conhecimento sobre um determinado tema tendem a fazer estimativas para fora da âncora, ou seja, mais para baixo de uma âncora baixa, ou para cima de uma âncora alta (Cheek & Norem, 2018); a ancoragem ocorre tanto se uma informação for apresentada através de uma fonte formal, como se apresentada através de um boato (Martínez-Tur et al, 2018); pessoas tendem a ser ancoradas quando uma informação apresentada é negativa, porém, não quando ela é positiva (Martínez-Tur et al, 2018).…”

“…Muitas outras pesquisas têm utilizado estímulos diferentes para verificar a ancoragem, como o uso de fotos com números dispostos no ambiente (Shanks et al, 2020), ofertas e sugestões de produtos apresentados a potenciais consumidores em sites de busca (Köcher et al, 2019), informações sobre a qualidade do transporte público veiculadas em jornais (Martínez-Tur et al, 2018), ou até a avaliação do preço de imóveis com base no número de portas (Ünveren & Baycar, 2019) situações que tampouco seriam encontradas com facilidade por um gestor em sua rotina de trabalho. Tais observações evidenciam uma lacuna no estudo desse viés, ou seja, o reduzido número de pesquisas que simulem situações análogas àquelas que seriam enfrentadas por um gestor no seu campo de atuação.…”
