1 Data Tables II

3 321 This appendix provides tables for each of the 84 indicators that make up the Global Innovation Index 2012 (GII). Structure Each table is identified by indicator number, with the first digit representing the pillar, the second representing the sub-pillar, and the final digit representing the indicator within that particular sub-pillar. For example Table shows results for indicator 2.1.4, Assessment in reading, mathematics, and science, which is the fourth indicator of sub-pillar 2.1, Education, within pillar 2, Human capital and research. The subheading text provides a detailed description of each indicator, with information on the units of each variable, the scaling factor (if any), the question asked (for survey questions), and the most frequent year for which data were available. For each indicator for each economy, the most recent value within the period was used. In instances where this base year does not correspond to the most frequent year reported in the sub-heading, the year of the value appears in parentheses after the economy name. A total of 62 variables are hard data; 16 are composite indicators, distinguished with an asterisk (*); and six are survey questions from the World Economic Forum s Executive Opinion Survey, singled out with a dagger ( ). Twenty-two indicators that were assigned half weight are singled out with an a. Normally higher values indicate better outcomes; five indicators for which higher scores indicate worse outcomes (commonly known as bads ) are differentiated with a b. Five composite indicators calculated as percent ranks at the source are singled out with an r. The source of each indicator is indicated at the bottom of the page. Details on each indicator can be found in Appendix III, Sources and Definitions. Explanation of scores The tables list the economies by their rank order, with the best performers at the top. After the rank comes the country/economy name, the original value of the specific indicator for that country (in the units specified in the subheading), the normalized score in the [0, 100] range, and the percentage of economies with scores that fall below the normalized score (i.e., percent ranks). To the far right of each column, a solid circle indicates that an indicator is a strength for the country/economy in question, and a hollow circle indicates that it is a weakness (refer to Appendix I Country/Economy Profiles for details). l Strengths are all ranks of 1, as well as all scores with percent ranks greater than the 10th highest percent rank among the 84 indicators in a specific economy.

4 322 Weaknesses are all scores with percent ranks lower than the 10th smallest percent rank among the 84 indicators in a specific economy. For three hard data series (7.3.1, 7.3.2, and 7.3.4), the raw data were provided under the condition that only the normalized scores be published and therefore the original value equals the normalized score. For indicator 3.3.2, the range for both measures is the same, [0, 100], and therefore both measures are also identical. In the case of five composite indicators that were calculated as percent ranks at the source (indicators 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3, 4.1.1, and 4.2.1, singled out with *r ), the normalized scores correspond to the percent ranks recalculated for the sample of 141 economies times 100. Details on the computation methodology can be found in Appendix IV, Technical Notes.
