The recent global pandemic has highlighted the importance of efficient communication between the government and its citizens through online platforms. While approximately 90% of governments around the world have opened up their websites to provide government information and public services, many have been criticized for their quality issues. The unsatisfactory upkeep of government websites may be due to the lack of adequate guidelines and evaluation tools for public managers, which would enable them to achieve the superior goals of e-government initiatives. We posit that evaluating government websites should be done with a formative and theory-based approach instead of summative or conclusion-based ones, as a government website is a long-term mechanism to achieve the objectives of e-government programs. Accordingly, this study empirically tests the Democratic E-governance Website Evaluation Model (DEWEM) that was conceptually created by Lee-Geiller and Lee (2019). Through a series of measurement development procedures, the results present a more concise, refined and validated model consisting of 25 items under 5 factors, whose associations to the outcome of democratic e-governance were statistically significant. The validated DEWEM also shows significant correlations with citizens' satisfaction and intention to use the website. This study advances the body of evaluation research for government websites and provides public managers with credible and useful guidelines for improving their websites.

改进的民主电子政务网站评价模型的验证

最近的全球大流行凸显了政府与其公民通过在线平台进行有效沟通的重要性。虽然全世界大约 90% 的政府已经开放了他们的网站以提供政府信息和公共服务,但许多政府因其质量问题而受到批评。政府网站的维护不令人满意可能是由于缺乏足够的指导方针和公共管理者的评估工具,这将使他们能够实现电子政务举措的卓越目标。我们认为,对政府网站的评估应采用形成性和基于理论的方法,而不是基于总结性或结论性的方法,因为政府网站是实现电子政务计划目标的长期机制。因此,本研究实证检验了 Lee-Geiller 和 Lee(2019)在概念上创建的民主电子政务网站评估模型 (DEWEM)。通过一系列的测量开发程序,结果呈现出一个更简洁、更精细和经过验证的模型,由 5 个因素下的 25 个项目组成,这些项目与民主电子政务结果的关联在统计上是显着的。经验证的 DEWEM 还显示出与公民的满意度和使用网站的意愿之间存在显着相关性。这项研究推进了政府网站的评估研究,并为公共管理者提供了可靠和有用的指导方针,以改进他们的网站。通过一系列的测量开发程序,结果呈现出一个更简洁、更精细和经过验证的模型,由 5 个因素下的 25 个项目组成,这些项目与民主电子政务结果的关联在统计上是显着的。经验证的 DEWEM 还显示出与公民的满意度和使用网站的意愿之间存在显着相关性。这项研究推进了政府网站的评估研究,并为公共管理者提供了可靠和有用的指导方针,以改进他们的网站。通过一系列的测量开发程序,结果呈现出一个更简洁、更精细和经过验证的模型,由 5 个因素下的 25 个项目组成,这些项目与民主电子政务结果的关联在统计上是显着的。经验证的 DEWEM 还显示出与公民的满意度和使用网站的意愿之间存在显着相关性。这项研究推进了政府网站的评估研究,并为公共管理者提供了可靠和有用的指导方针,以改进他们的网站。使用网站的满意度和意愿。这项研究推进了政府网站的评估研究,并为公共管理者提供了可靠和有用的指导方针,以改进他们的网站。使用网站的满意度和意愿。这项研究推进了政府网站的评估研究,并为公共管理者提供了可靠和有用的指导方针,以改进他们的网站。
