The purpose of this study is to test the relationship between specific capabilities of Cyprus' government and performance and the impact of performance on Cypriots' prosperity. Via the resource-based view model (RBV), it was hypothesized that each capability (i.e., entrepreneurship, motivation, investment, and adaptation) is positively related to Cyprus' government achievement of higher performance. It was also hypothesized that performance is positively related to prosperity. Data collected from 200 Cypriot citizens, aged 18 or over. Using correlation analysis, the study shows that entrepreneurial and adaptive capabilities have a statistical strong positive relationship with performance. In turn, performance has a strong positive relationship with prosperity. Several implications can be drawn from this study's findings for democratic governments and interesting directions for future research are provided.
本研究的目的是检验塞浦路斯政府的特定能力与绩效之间的关系，以及绩效对塞浦路斯人民繁荣的影响。通过基于资源的视图模型（RBV），研究假设每种能力（即创业精神、动力、投资和适应能力）与塞浦路斯政府取得更高绩效呈正相关。研究还假设绩效与繁荣呈正相关。数据收集自200名18岁及以上的塞浦路斯公民。通过相关性分析，研究表明创业能力和适应能力与绩效之间存在统计学上的强正相关关系。反过来，绩效与繁荣也存在强正相关关系。本研究的结果可以为民主政府带来若干启示，并为未来研究提供有趣的方向。
