Appendix B. Survey Results

This appendix presents detailed results for the survey. The results are organized into the following categories:

• Design Professionals • Code Enforcement Officials

For each survey question, raw values are presented in a summary data table. The results of many questions are also presented graphically.

The results of open-ended survey questions are included in Appendix C.

For each of the tables in Appendix B, the following conventions are used:

• * - Value is statistically significant at the 10 percent level (p-value ≤ 0.1) • ** - Value is statistically significant at the 5 percent level (p-value ≤ 0.05) • *** - Value is statistically significant at the 1 percent level (p-value ≤ 0.01) • Trainee Before/After Difference indicates the difference in means within the Trainee group, before

attending NYSERDA training and after. Trainee/Non-trainee Difference indicates the difference in means between the Trainee and Non-trainee groups, those who have attended NYSERDA training and those who have not.

Also, note that some differences may not sum due to rounding.

Appendix C. Survey Responses to Open-Ended Questions This appendix presents detailed results of the open-ended survey questions for which IEc conducted a formal coding analysis. There were a number of open-ended questions with few responses that IEc qualitatively summarized without coding; these questions were mostly follow-on questions such as “if yes, how?” or “why or why not?” Results are organized by survey question and audience group.

What are the most significant changes you have made to your [designs, plan reviews, or building inspections] related to the 2016 Energy Code? Please provide up to three examples.
