79%
The results in this year’s Country Survey were compared to those in the Country Survey conducted in FY’14 (response rate was 91%, N=639). Data were weighted to reach the same stakeholder composition in two years, which allows for year comparisons. Stakeholder groups which were not present in both fiscal years were not included in the comparison. Respondents who belonged to the “other” stakeholder category were not included either. As a result, mean ratings, percentages of respondents, and the total number of respondents in both years are slightly different from those of the original data reported in the FY’14 COS report and the non-weighted data presented in appendices A, B, C, D, and F. For the weighted stakeholder breakdown and year comparison results, please refer to Appendix E (page 105).
The questionnaire consisted of 8 Sections:
A. General Issues Facing Liberia
B. Overall Attitudes toward the World Bank Group
C. World Bank Group's Effectiveness and Results
D. The World Bank Group's Knowledge Work and Activities (i.e., analysis studies, research, data, reports, conferences)
E. Working with the World Bank Group
F. The Future Role of the World Bank Group in Liberia
G. Communication and Information Sharing
H. Background Information
The questionnaire was prepared in English.
