Even though the indicator focuses on men, make sure to ask this question to all respondents, including female ones. This data can be useful to identify patterns of programming relevance.

• Statements 1, 3 and 4:
• Strongly agree and agree responses: +1
• Neither agree nor disagree: 0
• Disagree and strongly disagree responses: -1
• Statements 2 and 5:
• Strongly agree and agree responses: -1
• Neither agree nor disagree: 0
• Disagree and strongly disagree responses: +1
