1.7.2 Survey duration by enumerator

2 Answer selection

2.1 Agree/Disagree Questions

This table shows the average HHI, by enumerator, of the responses to 32 agreement-style questions in the survey. The HHI is a metric that indicates the ‘diversification’ in responses to the agreement questions.

An average HHI of 1 indicates that the enumerator records the same answer for all 32 agreement questions on every survey they enumerated. As the average HHI approaches 0, it indicates that the enumerator tends to record the same number of responses at each level of agreement for each survey.

We consider average HHIs above 0.75 and below 0.3 as potentially suspicious. (Note that an HHI of 0.89 corresponds to 30 out of 32 answers being the same, and 0.77 corresponds to 28 out of 32 answers be the same. The smallest possible HHI in this case is 0.17. Note, in some cases, respondents answer less than 32 agree/disagree questions due to filters.)
