Sectoral Importance and Effectiveness continued Effectiveness of Sectoral Areas: Collaborations continued  Collaboration: Respondents who currently collaborate with the WBG had significantly higher ratings for the WBG’s effectiveness in “securitystabilizationreconstruction” than respondents who previously or never collaborated with the institution.  Collaboration: Respondents who previously collaborated with the WBG had significantly higher ratings for the WBG’s effectiveness in “law and justice” than respondents who currently collaborate or never collaborated with the institution. 36 VI. Sectoral Importance and Effectiveness continued Drivers of Effectiveness To determine the key drivers of respondents’ ratings of the World Bank Group’s overall effectiveness and ratings of its ability to help achieve development results in Afghanistan, bivariate correlational analyses wer e conducted using respondents’ ratings of the thirty five specific areas of effectiveness. Correlational analyses, however, are not able to tell us exactly what is causing respondents’ ratings of the World Bank Group ’s overall effectiveness or ratings of its ability to help achieve development results. Rather, these analyses tell us that as ratings of effectiveness in one area increase, respondents’ ratings of the Bank Group’s overall effectiveness increase, or as ratings of effectiveness in one area incr ease, ratings of the WBG’s ability to help achieve development results increase. Thus, it can be inferred that respondents’ perceptions of effectiveness in one specific area are related to, or drive, respondents’ perceptions of the Bank Group’s overall effectiveness or perceptions of the WBG’s ability to help achieve development results.  Overall Effectiveness: Those specific areas with the highest Pearson Product-Moment correlations were determined to be the most closely related to perceptions of the Bank Group ’s overall effectiveness, suggesting that ratings of effectiveness in those specific areas are drivers of perceptions of the Bank Group ’s overall effectiveness in Afghanistan. The areas determined to be key drivers from these analyses were:  The WB G’s effectiveness at education;  The WBG’s effectiveness at information and communications technology;  The WBG’s effectiveness at law and justice;  The WBG’s effectiveness at agricultural development; and,  The WBG’s effectiveness at health.  Achieving Development Results: Those specific areas with the highest Pearson Product- Moment correlations were determined to be the most closely related to perceptions of the WBG’s ability to help achieve development results in Afghanistan, suggesting that ratings of effe ctiveness in those specific areas are drivers of perceptions of the WBG’s ability to help achieve development results. The areas determined to be key drivers from these analyses were:  The WBG’s effectiveness at public sector governancereform;  The WBG’s effectiveness job creationemployment;  The WBG’s effectiveness at law and justice;  The WBG’s effectiveness at agricultural development; and  The WBG’s effectiveness at local governance and institutions. 37  VII.

This is why the means in FY’15 in this chart are slightly different from those in the previous page. For more information about weighting, please see Appendix F. 7.2 6.5
