Fear of the pandemic, loss of part-time jobs, online classes, and sometimes very limited opportunities for social interaction have all contributed to a sharp increase in students' experience of stress over the past two years. The result has been an increase in mental illness and thus a steadily rising need for psychological counseling. Policymakers in some states are now responding by increasing funding for psychological counseling at universities. However, current studies point above all to the social isolation of students, which still exists two years after the start of the pandemic. What are the consequences for the actors in the higher education system, especially in the field of student counseling, teaching and coaching?
For successful digitalization of the public sector, insights into how digitalization affects the work of public sector employees must be attained. Hence, integrative conceptual models and metrics of digital work are needed. A five-dimensional model describing the degree of digitalization of administrative action (Kaesmayr, Schorn & Steidle 2021) provides the point of departure for this paper. To enable actual measurement, the development and validation of a corresponding questionnaire is presented. Its development includes the item formulation by specifying attributes, raters and objects of the underlying constructs as well as the formation of indices by means of a contrast weighting specifically augmented for this type of work. The validation of the scale includes component as well as confirmatory factor analyses based on data from 519 administrative employees in Germany. The scale provides the opportunity to describe and evaluate the degree of digitalization of administrative procedures and to evaluate measures to improve digital case processing. Furthermore, it enables research into conditions and consequences for a successful digital transformation. However, further research is required to verify the predictive validity and practical benefits of the scale.
This research explores stakeholders' perspectives on administrative procedures, focusing on basic psychological needs. The goal is to understand the motives driving evaluations of administrative quality and performance, particularly for constitutive administrative acts. Using a multi-method approach, the study analyzes five stakeholder groups' central motives at different stages of administrative procedures. To achieve this, the user experience journey technique is adapted to identify stakeholders' motivations, including achievement, affiliation, and power. Guided workshop discussions, qualitative expert interviews, and a review of legal sources are utilized to determine stakeholders' urgencies at each step of the process. Through qualitative content analysis of expert interviews, the study deduces the central concepts underlying these urgencies. The findings provide valuable insights into stakeholders' perspectives, motivations, and urgencies regarding administrative procedures and thus important attributes of good administration. This understanding is crucial for evaluating administrative performance and shaping potential goals for administrative reforms.
This Bachelor's thesis is about analysing the one typical administrative degree program of each federal state as well as of the Federal Republic of Germany. The aim is to examine which Information and Communication Technology (ICT) modules are taught, what scope they have and whether they teach basic skills according to International Certificate of Digital Literacy (ICDL) or advanced skills. Finally, the competences that exceed the basics will be clustered and it will be analysed whether they are administration-specific or generally technology-related.
