Interpretation

Aversion to risk

It refers to the collaboration between political and social actors in relation to the governance of water resources and services ( García, Carreón, Bustos, & Juárez, 2016 ).

I will negotiate the establishment of rates after the local or federal elections

0 = “not likely” up to 5 = “quite likely”

A high score reflects a governance of water resources and services indicated by perceptions of risk control

Propensity to risk

Refers to the delegation of responsibility to the State or civil society based on the universal right of access to water, the gratuity of the service, the prevention of water-borne diseases and the subsidy for development ( García, Carreón, & Hernández, 2016 )

The State must provide an indispensable minimum of water to residences free of charge

0 = “not likely” up to 5 = “quite likely”

a high score reflects a codependence rather than a congestion of water resources and services
