Scale Research And Development In Dalian Division Level Leadership Positions In The Civil Service Capacity

Civil servants are the body of a country's administrative management. How to set up an evaluating system scientifically for civil servants to improve their competency has become the main focus that has aroused great concern in the government reform process. The relative studies about the ability-evaluating frame previously did not take the civil servants' administrative levels and their different sorts into account, or else they lack scientific and theoretical base and verifying process.This paper takes the common competency of the middle-rank civil servants in the departments directly under Dalian municipal government as the study object, and uses relative theoretical studies and practices both at home and abroad for references. It proposes the common competency demand not only for the civil servants in China in the new environment but also for those in Dalian in a specific situation as well as the middle-rank leading cadre in different departments with their special functional characteristics. Moreover, a competency-evaluating frame is set up, including 6 facets and 19 indexes. A measurement standard on the middle-rank leading cadre in different government departments is also worked out by specific talks with 32 civil servants with different ranks from 11 bureaus, including 65 items in all. After getting 216 valid samples from the sample test in 24 bureaus in Dalian, we make the reliability and validity test to the sample results by using SPSS software, and prove that they are of good reliability and validity, thus setting up the final frame and measurement in due form. The revised frame consists of 6 competency facets and 14 indexes, while the measurement consists of 49 items.
