Definition: An index combines metrics and indicators into a high-level measure.

What This Means: AYP is an index combining annual objectives, participation rates, and alternative indicators. The advantage of an index is that the decision maker is using fewer measures which have already been combined and weighted to represent the agency’s goals. (See our Optimal Reference Guide, “From Information to Insight – the point of indicators” at www.espsg.com/resources.php.)
