Main Article Content
Abstract
The objectives of this academic article were 1) to study the nature of policy feedback; 2) to study the application of the study of policy feedback in research; and 3) to study a case study of policy feedback research. It was based on a literature review of academic works that have studied policy feedback which was published in an international academic database. The results of the study found that 1) policy feedback had the characteristics of considering public policy in each period at least two phases within the institutional context to bring about answers to end or improve policies; 2) the application of policy feedback studies in research was to view policy feedback as a research method. There were steps and dimensions of the study that considered the perspective of impacts in the form of feedback. This was considered to be accessing research findings in a new way; and 3) the case study of policy feedback research reflected that policy feedback studies had the ability to be applied to the study of public policy. It had strengths in study methodology and had the potential to study policy more comprehensively than studying policy evaluation according to the traditional policy study process.
