Abstract

This article extends existing research on the determinants of willingness for co-production in policy by offering an additional lens through the use of compliance-gaining techniques in policy announcements. By experimenting on two different techniques in the case of a psychosocial support policy among Indonesian citizens, regression analysis results show that individuals will comply with policies, not necessarily because they are morally appealing, but because of other factors in the announcement. Data availability and simplified registration procedures are key components that boost compliance. On the contrary, individuals do not need to understand or have a mental health issue to participate in a segmented focus issue. Perceived legitimacy of public organizations, as well as motivation to contribute, continue to be prerequisites for highly effective public participation. This study concludes that a morally appealing delivery can be beneficial, but it requires accompanyment from other supporting aspects in the announcement, which encourages future research to test it within a specific socio-demographic background.

Abstract

Development planning ideally requires accurate information to translate distant solutions, where actions and impacts are separated by significant delays. However, the attention theory suggests that the attention of planners is constrained by familiarity bias, shaped by organizational procedures and communication channels. This study argues that planners are less likely to prioritize distant solutions due to a stronger sense of perceived self-efficacy. Even when presented with favorable information, decision-makers tend to rely on heuristics that filter out unfamiliar information. Employing a mixed-method approach by combining a discrete choice experiment and qualitative interviews with regional planners in Indonesia, this study discovers that familiarity bias influences decision-making. Planners not only adjust decisions based on human resource capacities but also favor familiar performance indicators drawn from the common information inventory. This study advances the attention theory and the behavioral approach in public sector decision-making, particularly in addressing new development challenges such as energy transitions and the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI). By focusing on a developing country, this study bridges the development theory and practice in a more human-centered and critical context.
