The general objective of this research is to propose a public good co-production model that relates citizens' motivations and co-production typologies. It is expected to provide subsidies to managers in the elaboration and implementation of public policies to be developed in partnership with society. We seek to answer the question: what is the relationship between the individual's motivation to co-produce and the type of co-production desired? It is intended to provide subsidies for managers to know the motivations of citizens to get involved in coproductive activities and the form of execution, in order to be something interesting for both parties. Thus, the specific objectives are: (I) to improve Bezerra's scale of motivations for coproduction (2020); (II) create a scale of co-production typologies; and (III) create an analysis model validated through the statistical technique of structural equation modeling (SEM). The thesis argument consists of the possibility of stimulating the exercise of citizenship, through co-production. The constituent items of this thesis are interrelated and refer to: citizenship, “civil society” and co-production. Indeed, levels of citizenship can be improved by promoting co-production, via third-sector organizations or through direct action by citizens. The first specific objective was achieved by improving the scale of motivations for co-production proposed by Bezerra (2020). The procedures adopted in that research were reviewed, which proposed a model consisting of twelve items divided into four dimensions. After the review, a new scale consisting of eleven items with the same dimensions was arrived at. Subsequently, the second specific objective was achieved, through the creation and validation of the instrument for measuring co-production typologies. It is an unprecedented scale with great potential to contribute to co-production studies, which predominantly makes use of qualitative research and case studies. The third specific objective was achieved by testing the research hypotheses with the aid of statistical techniques that helped to understand how the variations in typologies can be explained by variations in motivations. Thus, at the end of this research, it was concluded that the motivational aspects work as good predictors for the co-production typologies of the public good. Specifically, self-efficacy motivations were those that showed more consistent relationships with the five types of co-production proposed in this research. This research also had theoretical implications by filling the gaps pointed out by Brandsen and Honingh (2016), regarding the relationship between motivations and personal characteristics and the nature of activities. And also the one cited by Chaebo and Medeiros (2017), which lists two or more of the “concepts” presented, including motivations and typologies (levels and forms). Thus, this research could be useful in future studies on the coproduction of the public good.
