Capacity measure |
Description |
| |
|
Capacity strength (CS) |
Refers to how strong a particular capacity is in the community.
Participants indicated the extent to which the community group agrees or
disagrees with each statement on a four-point scale from “1 = Strongly
Disagree” through to “4 = Strongly Agree” |
|
Capacity importance |
Even if all capacities are strong in a community, each of them does not
contribute equally to total community capacity. Some will be more important for
this purpose than others according to the community’s assessment (Cheers
et al. 2005). On the template, assessment participants indicated the perceived
importance of each capacity on a four-point scale from “1 = Not
Important” through to “4 = Extremely Important” |
|
Capacity confidence (CC) |
Reflects the assessment participants’ level of confidence in
responding to the capacity indicator. Participants indicated their level of
confidence on a four-point scale from “1 = Not Confident” through to
“4 = Extremely Confident”. More information needed to be collected
if participants were not confident in responding to the indicator. |
