  1. The Collaborative DelphiRound 8 Helen Ivy Rowe

  2. Definition • The Delphi, as we use it, is a technique used for gathering and developing opinion to further the work of the SRR.

  3. Procedure • A set of carefully designed sequential questionnaires interspersed with summarized responses.

  4. Past Delphi Rounds • Delphi 1 and 2 (between Denver and SLC): • Worked on finding common ground through developing mission and vision statements. • Delphi 3, 4, and 5 (between SLC and Reno): • Reached agreement on definition of rangelands • Finalized a vision/mission “package” • Received input on “most important issues” work produced at SLC meeting

  5. Delphi 6 and 7 • Received input on Indicator Classification System.

  6. Delphi 8 • Questions requested by Criteria groups at the last meeting: • What should be used as a reference point or time zero? • Feedback to the Soil/Water group for dropping an indicator.

  7. Delphi 8 Results • What will we use for reference states? What is time zero for these indicators? • Now • Earliest possible data (could include now) • Reference state (ecological condition) should be considered rather than time • In some cases minimum value might be more useful than a reference state

  8. Delphi 8 Results • Do all indicators need reference states/time zero? • Yes -10 • No-12 3. Will one reference state/time zero work for all indicators? • Yes – 3 (time zero as now) • No - 19

  9. Delphi 8 Questions 4-6 • Soil & Water Indicator 2: Area and percent of rangeland managed primarily for protective functions.

  10. 4. Rate your level of acceptance for dropping this indicator 3--Unacceptable = disagree, indicator should be kept as written 4--Slightly acceptable = the indicator can be dropped, but only if another indicator is written to encompass specific aspects (please explain in #2) 6--Moderately acceptable = acceptable, but would support developing a new indicator to encompass protected areas 9--Highly acceptable = acceptable, indicator should be dropped

  11. Delphi 8 Results 5. If this indicator is dropped are there aspects of this indicator that should be preserved in another indicator? • Soil and water conservation • Management/use/control site • Move to Ecological Health and Diversity or Legal, Institutional, and Economic Criteria groups • Should not be preserved

  12. Delphi 8 Results • Any other comments? • Reword the indicator (from protection to conservation?) • Area in land conservation should be measured

  13. Delphi 8 Results • Soil and Water Group results • Two active members responded. • Neither wrote comments. • Highly acceptable to drop the indicator.

  14. Mini survey.

  15. Criteria group use of Delphi Criteria groups may request to use the Delphi. Here are some suggestions for application: • Technical questions that are not answerable yet, to get an expert spread of opinion. • If a group gets “stuck” and wants help from the SRR. • Theoretical questions that need “buy in” from the group or SRR. • Indicator review for individual indicators or as sets to check for gaps/overlaps/ acceptability.

  16. Feedback • Delphi design • Responding to the Delphi • Reasons for participation/non-participation • General feedback
