SOCA: How is the activity value (social assessment) calculated and how does it differ from the activity variable?

Question

Regarding the SOCA database: What is the difference between activity variable for a process in the tab social aspects (e.g. yarn production, cotton, ring spinning | yarn, cotton | Cutoff, U) and the activity value in the results in the social assessment tab, which is not weighted? How is the activity value calculated?

Answer 1

Hello Katrin
Activity variable is the same as acitivity value you see in social assessment tab per process. However, yes the single acitivity value you see per social indicator is weigthed average acitivity variable.
