Description
Definition
The Community Attachment Index measures respondents' satisfaction with the city or area where they live and their likelihood to move away or recommend that city or area to a friend.
INDEX QUESTIONS
- Are you satisfied or dissatisfied with the city or area where you live? (WP83)
- In the next 12 months, are you likely or unlikely to move away from the city or area where you live? (WP85)
- Would you recommend the city or area where you live to a friend or associate as a place to live, or not? (WP86)
INDEX CONSTRUCTION
Index scores are calculated at the individual record level. For each individual the following procedure applies: The three items are recoded so that favorable answers are scored as a "1" and all other answers (including don't know or refused) are a "0." If a record has no answer for an item, then that item is not eligible for inclusion in the calculations. An individual record has an index calculated if it has two valid scores (0 or 1). The record's final score is the mean of valid items multiplied by 100. The final country-level index score is the mean of all individual records for which an index score was calculated. Country-level weights are applied to this calculation.
RELIABILITY
The Community Attachment Index has a Cronbach's alpha of .76 when aggregated at the country level.
