Policy effectiveness refers to citizens’ faith in their government and the impact they believe they have on political leaders. Political scientists divide it into internal and external forms, which can indicate potential voter turnout and attitudes towards the government. Higher effectiveness tends to indicate support for incumbents, while lower effectiveness may lead to support for reform candidates.
Policy effectiveness is a term used primarily in policy theory and discussion to refer to the amount of faith and impact citizens feel or believe they have on their government. When low, it indicates that a country’s citizens have little faith in their government and feel that their actions have little or no impact on the actions of their political leaders. Higher levels of effectiveness, however, tend to indicate that citizens believe their government is doing what is best for them and that the actions they take on a common basis can have a positive impact on government. This type of information is often determined through polls and polls and used by politicians and news broadcasters to understand the political climate of a country or region.
When studying this concept, political scientists tend to divide it into two forms: internal and external. Internal effectiveness refers to how a person feels that his skills, knowledge and abilities can have an effect on the political system. This type of effectiveness often indicates how likely a person is to vote or become politically active, as he feels that what she has to offer can really impact the political system. While there is some debate about the potential causality between political effectiveness and voter turnout, there appears to be a strong correlation between those with higher domestic effectiveness and the likelihood of them voting.
External effectiveness has to do with how a person feels his government is responding to his needs and how the political system and government reflect his needs and concerns. This type can have a lot to do with trust and the extent to which a person feels that their government cares about him or her and the needs of others like him or her. Low external effectiveness can often indicate apathy towards politics or the government, and citizens feeling that the government does not represent them.
Both forms can be used as indicators of potential voter turnout, as well as prevailing attitudes towards the government and the popularity of anti-establishment movements. Those with lower political effectiveness tend to be more likely to support reform candidates, even though they may not actually vote as they feel their actions do not actually affect the political process. Higher effectiveness tends to indicate those who are likely to vote because they believe they have an effect on the government and may be supporting the incumbent since they likely feel the government is already effectively representing them.
