Another hypothesis the researcher explored is that as individuals perceive of burden as highly administrative. They will become less supportive of those specific tasks. The experience exhibited by such administrative burdens creates a negative mindset which influences how other aspects of the policy are perceived. As a result of this Framing effect the policy may appear to be more flawed because of it's emphasize on the negative elements rather than the benefits. In a wider view, administrators who perceive a policy as Burdensome may also see it as simply not being worth the burden, regardless of its importance and Philosophical pre-dispositions that might influence an employee to support or oppose a policy in Principle.
In this respect to other frames, the administrative burden perception can create a systematic bias which can lead to...
This can be summarized as below:
Higher perceived administrative burden of a policy is associated with more critical assessment of policy weaknesses.
Higher perceived administrative burden of a policy is associated with more critical
Assessment of policy merits.
Higher perceived administrative burden of a policy is associated with biased assessments of policy efficacy.
