Figure 26 Likelihood of using objectives, by purpose (N=45)

Note: The following conversion of frequency from words to numbers allowed for weighted averaging: Not at all = 0, Infrequently = 1, Somewhat = 2, and Frequently = 3. A higher number in the chart indicates that objectives were more likely to be used for the respective purpose.
