    Design of a chatbot as a distance learning assistant
    (International Council for Open and Distance Education (ICDE), 2020) Tamayo Lorenzo, Pedro Antonio; Herrero Alcalde, Ana; Martín Román, Javier; Navarro Ruiz, Carolina; Tránchez Martín, José Manuel
    Within the process of progressive digitization of materials and tools for teaching and distance learning of a subject of introduction to Microeconomics (quarterly, in year three of the Degree in Social Work), taught by the authors at the National University of Distance Education (UNED), a virtual assistant in the form of chatbot, or conversational robot, called EconBot, has been designed and made available to students from 2017. This paper presents the reasons that led to its adoption, the process of its development, differentiating two phases, its characteristics and functions, the assessment of its usefulness and the role of teachers in the implementation of this type of technological innovation.

    Visibilidad y atribución de responsabilidades en el estado de autonomías español
    (Instituto de Estudios Fiscales, 2016) Goenaga Ruiz de Zuazu, María; Herrero Alcalde, Ana; Tránchez Martín, José Manuel
    Este trabajo contribuye a la literatura sobre la visibilidad del Estado de las Autonomías mediante un análisis de los factores determinantes de la no respuesta y la respuesta incorrecta en la encuesta efectuada por el Instituto de Estudios Fiscales relativas a la atribución de competencias a los distintos niveles de gobierno. El objetivo es contrastar si el ciclo político, los medios de comunicación, la existencia de una lengua cooficial o la irrupción de la crisis económica son factores explicativos en la identificación del nivel de gobierno competente. Para ello, se estima un modelo logit cuyos resultados sugieren que las elecciones autonómicas, las televisiones de ámbito regional, las lenguas cooficiales y los recortes habidos durante los años de crisis económica contribuyen a aumentar la visibilidad de los gobiernos autonómicos. Además, la utilización de modelos cualitativos multinomiales proporciona unos resultados que confirman la existencia de heterogeneidad en el grupo de respuesta incorrecta y no respuesta.

    Revisiting Responsibility Attribution within Multilevel Governments: The Role of Information
    (Ministerio de Hacienda. Instituto de Estudios Fiscales, 2017-10-01) Herrero Alcalde, Ana; Tránchez Martín, José Manuel; Ruiz de Zuazu, M. Goenaga
    Recent research has shown that citizens living in decentralized countries struggle to identify which level of government is designing and implementing public policies, thus hindering the due accountability process of democracy. This paper contributes to the literature on the determinants of citizens´ responsibility attribution by analyzing the Spanish case. A novel methodological approach is used by separately analyzing those citizens who fail to identify the competent level of government and those who did not even give an answer. Besides, two novel hypotheses are tested regarding the process by which information is transmitted to and absorbed by citizens: the impact of regional media and the territorial group bias. After confirming that the methodological strategy is correct, we find strong evidence that the existence of regional media helps responsibility attribution, thus fostering accountability; while co-official languages, used as a proxy of a group bias, hamper the process by which citizens identify the competent level of government.

    Demographic, political, institutional and financial determinants of regional social expenditure: the case of Spain
    (Taylor and Francis Group, 2016-04-11) Herrero Alcalde, Ana; Tránchez Martín, José Manuel
    This paper contributes to the literature on the determinants of regional social spending using a data set of the 17 regional governments in Spain. With both a fixed-effects static and a dynamic model, results suggest that demography, inputs, institutional design and resources are critical in determining the size of regional social budgets. Empirical evidence was found about the existence of economies of scale, but social services do not seem to follow a luxury-good pattern. Left-wing governments seem to spend more, while federal regulations work as constraints of regional autonomy. Finally, strong evidence that the `foral` system of regional financing is creating horizontal inequalities in the access to essential public services was found, while the common regime seems to be working well enough.
