This study investigates how the public forum cognition of citizen affect their intension to attend public forum given researching methods of Public Affairs Management Integrated Reference Framework (PAM) and Social Development Matrix(SDM). Based on PAM, we analysed the meaning of citizen governance and the role of citizen through real events, and discussed the cognition and psychological weights of our citizen to participate public forums.
Through the analysis methods of literatures, this study summarized three factors that proposed by Ostrom(1990) - Institution, Commitment and Supervision, and then sequentially made the standard measurement divided into two levels by fair/unfair, high/low and valid/invalid. In this study, we focused on citizens who had participated in interactive management and chose Information Integration Theory (IIT) as our research method. Our research discussed that psychological weights of Institution, Commitment and Supervision, which defined three explanatory variables to estimate the public forum consciousness of citizens. By using SPSS and AVERAGE software, we computed the psychological weights of three factors and understood the attitudes of citizens toward public forum, furthermore, we compared the differences among the weights and offered suggestion and strategies of citizen governing in the future.
The results are as following:
1. Compared to participants from traditional conservative society, our participants from highly developed multi-cultural society are more willing to attend public forums.
2. Participants of different backgrounds assess sequentially the importance of three factors by Supervision, Institution and Commitment.
3. Our results showed that the integrated information patterns(model) are all unequal weighted average pattern(model).
4. All three factors of our research are significant on dependent variable in main effects, two-factor interaction and three-factor interaction.
