Note. Standard deviations indicate level of agreement in ratings across respondents (higher standard<br />
deviations indicate less agreement in respondent ratings). All ratings were made on 7-point scales<br />
where 1 = “Very poor” and 7 = “Very good”; thus, higher numbers reflect greater perceived quality.<br />
