43. III. Evolution Collaboration with CSEND started in 2010. The aim was to strengthen the methodological aspects of the Index making A second generation of the ITPMI questionnaire was developed jointly Data was collected during the FEATS conferences in the participating countries in late 2010. The aim of the 2nd round of data collection and analyses was to validate the action variables The 2010 survey also serves as a pre-test to assess the effectiveness of the ITPM Questionnaire 18

44. Changes made to the 2009 Questionnaire Adaptation of the questions according to the action variables (AVs) based on the results of the 2009 questionnaire Systematic inclusion of the actor types Assessment of relative importance of AVs Adding qualitative questions to check completeness of the Index 19

52. factor analysis Method: Principal Component Analysis / VarimaxRotation Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy: 0.779 Bartlett's Test of Sphericity: .000 Total variance explained: 59.20% Factors extracted: 3 26

53. factor analysis Result: Three theoretical dimensions can be meaningfully bundled together through factor analysis; Questions regarding governance, participation and representativeness constitute a factor on their own. 27
