Dear colleagues,

Apologies in advance for cross-posting.

*** CALL FOR PAPERS ON ROLE MODELS AND MESSENGER EFFECTS ***

We are seeking papers for a special issue of the Journal of Behavioral Public Administration (JBPA) on role models and messenger effects. We welcome papers from public administration settings, both large and small, in which messenger effects, and particularly role model effects (those in which the 'messenger' is a more senior or experienced figure who provides a template for the behaviour of others), are tested using field experimental, or quasi-experimental methods. Although papers exploring precise mechanisms are welcomed, so too are papers in which the 'messenger' or 'role model' conflates multiple sources of influence. Null results are very welcome.

Full details can be found here: https://journal-bpa.org/index.php/jbpa/announcement/view/8

Please send the guest editors ([log in to unmask], [log in to unmask]) a title and a short abstract of about 300 words, plus your contact details by the end of April 2020.

Best wishes,
Eliza
