Building on prior research within this field, our study offers insights into various antecedents for performance information use ﾖ including individual, performance-measurement-specific, and organizational context factors. By applying a quantitative survey of different actor groups at the local government level in Austria, we draw a picture of different user profiles for mayors with administrative authority, chief officials and chief financial officials. Hence, we are able to confirm findings from former studies with other national backgrounds and contribute to a better understanding regarding some new individual aspects influencing discretionary performance information use in a strategy formulation context.  - Reproduce  aLocal government  aKorac, Sanja  aInternational Review of Administrative Sciences
