Measuring Stakeholder Influence

Description

This project was financed by The National Center of Reaserch and Development (grant number IS-2/88/NCBR/2015). This software is an original instrument for measuring stakeholder influence on the development of a publicly-funded infrastructure project and for estimating its cost and benefits, as preceived by different stakeholder groups. Its originality lies in application of Leontief's input-output analysis to estimating both stakeholder influence on a infrastructure project and its cost and benefits, as perceived by different stakeholder groups. Admittedly, in the literature there are studies that draw on Leontief's model to estimate stakeholder influence or, separately, to measure a project's perceived costs and benefits. That said, none of this research work - unlike our package - combines the two focuses. It follows that our software, uniquely, links together Leontief's input-output analysis, stakeholder influence measurement and estimation of a project's costs and benefits. Therefore, it constitutes a useful instrument that might be of particular interest to managers and municipality official responsible for implementation of a large-scale infrastructure projects. Proposes an original instrument for measuring stakeholder influence on the development of an infrastructure project that is carried through by a municipality, drawing on stakeholder classifications (Mitchell, Agle, & Wood, 1997) and input-output modelling (Hester & Adams, 2013).

AttribIdent

Description

Identifies stakeholder attributes as well as benefits and costs

Usage

AttribIdent(TestedResponses, NoAttrib, NoStakeholders, NameStakeholders)

Arguments

TestedResponses

the result of the RespVerif function

NoAttrib

col numbers in the raw data set related to particular constructs. The $NoAttrib from the PreCalc function should be used

NoStakeholders

the number of stakeholder groups. The $NoStakeholders from the PreCalc function should be used

NameStakeholders

the names of stakeholder groups. The $NameStakeholders from the PreCalc function should be used

Details

Based on previously performed tests of means and fractions (see the RespVerif function), the function determines whether a particular attribute is statistically significant or not (.<05)

Value

Mean

(the number of stakeholder groups) x 6 matrix. In each row, the "+" sign indicates that an attribute is statistically significant, while the "-" sign indicates that an attribute is not statistically significant (based on the mean test). The "0" sign shows that the response is neutral, meaning that respondents do not know whether they possess a particular attribute or not

Fra

(the number of stakeholder groups) x 6 matrix. In each row, the "+" sign indicates that an attribute is statistically significant, while the "-" sign indicates that an attribute is not statistically significant (based on the fraction test). The "0" sign shows that the response is neutral, meaning that respondents do not know whether they possess a particular attribute or not

BenefCost

Description

Calculates the benefit indicator (normalized on the 0-1 scale) and the cost indicator (normalized on the 0-1 scale), and performs a Student's t-test (with H0 stating that the mean of benefits and the mean of costs are equal)

Usage

RespVefif

Description

Performs tests of statistical significance of the means and fractions of responses

Usage

RespVerif(CountResponses, NoStakeholders)

Arguments

CountResponses

the $CountResponses result of the PreCalc function (i.e., 30 x number of stakeholder groups matrix of counted responses related to all the constructs)

NoStakeholders

the number of stakeholder groups (i.e., the $NoStakeholders result of the PreCalc function)

Details

The function performs two tests of statistical significance: (1) the means and (2) the fractions of responses. As regards (1), H0 states that the mean of responses to a particular item is equal to "3" (i.e., a neutral response on a five-point Likert scale); H1 states that the mean is not equal to "3" (i.e., a two-sides alternative hypothesis). As regards (2), H0 states that the fraction of the "1" and "2" responses is equal to the fraction of the "4" and "5" responses; H1 states that the fraction of the "1" and "2" responses is not equal to the fraction of the "4" and "5" responses (i.e., a two-sides alternative hypothesis)

Value

Mean

(3 x the number of stakeholder groups) x 6 matrix. The first row indicates the mean response. The second row reports stat value. The third row indicates prob. The same pattern applies to each stakeholder group

Fra

(3 x the number of stakeholder groups) x (3 x 6) matrix. The first row indicates the number of negative ("1" and "2"), neutral ("3") and positive ("4" and "5") responses. The second row reports fractions of responses. The third row reports stat/prob

StakeholdClassif

Description

Classifies stakeholder groups and suggests communication strategies

Usage

StakeholdClassif(BenefCostTest, CollabPotential, AttribIdent)

Arguments

BenefCostTest

the result of a Student's t-test (with H0 stating that the mean of benefits and the mean of costs are equal). The $BenefCostTest from the BenefCost function should be used

CollabPotential

the potential for collaboration. The $Mean or the $Fra from the CollabPotential function should be used

AttribIdent

identified stakeholder attributes. The $Mean or the $Fra from the AttribIdent function should be used

Details

The function first classifies stakeholder groups into categories, as described by Mitchell, Agle and Wood (1997). It then determines their attitudes ("supportive", "non-supportive", "mixed", "neutral", "insignificant") and, with the potential for collaboration taken into account, suggests a communication strategy vis-a-vis a particular stakeholder group

Value

The number of stakeholder groups x 3 data frame. The first column indicates stakeholder classification. The second column shows stakeholder attitudes. The third column suggests a communication strategy
