Direction of governance quality ranks

Posted by cjabradshaw on 01 Feb 2012 at 20:18 GMT

lower ranks = higher negative impact

It has come to my attention that the governance quality ranks are in reverse order to the environmental ranks. Thus, in the tables, low governance quality ranks actually mean higher relative governance quality. However, we reversed the ranks for the structural equation modelling and Fig. 2, so the results are correct as presented.
