In this section, Respondents were asked to rate the quality of the existing service. Then, they were asked to rate the importance of that service using the scale

  • L = Low Importance (assigned a value of 1)
  • M = Medium Importance (assigned a value of 2)
  • H = High Importance (assigned a value of 3)
Because this is not a ranking exercise, multiple items can have the same importance rating.
