Abstract
The present study evaluates the decentralization experience in Jordan offering an empirical test of the tripartite model of decentralization that has been developed by Schneider (2003) using descriptive and inferential analyses. The finding indicates that there is a moderate extent of the implementation of decentralization in Jordan with a mean of 3.12 and standard deviation of 0.581. SPSS analysis confirms a moderate degree for each core indicator within Jordanian experience; the mean average values recorded were 3.33, 3.11, and 2.95 for political, financial, and administrative indicators, respectively. As a result, Jordan's local administration essentially remains dependent on the local arms of centralized power. Finally, the implementation of decentralization experience in Jordan is influenced by the position variable of Jordanian civil servants at level (α ≤ .05).
