Descriptif de la recherche - avril 2013 Objectifs de l’enquête 4 L’objectif principal de l’enquête était de consulter un échantillon de la population de la Riviera sur son positionnement quant à un éventuel rapprochement, voire une fusion avec d’autres communes et de déterminer quels seraient, à leurs yeux, les principaux avantages, inconvénients ainsi que les conséquences d’un renforcement des collaborations intercommunales. Il s’agissait également de déterminer dans quels domaines le rapprochement est le plus souhaitable et d’identifier à quel niveau résident les principales craintes. Diverses formes de collaborations intercommunales ainsi que les ententes entre les différentes communes ont également été analysées. Cette enquête a permis, en outre, de mesurer l’attachement de la population à leur commune et à leur région et à déterminer leur satisfaction à l’égard des différentes prestations communales. 4 - avril 2013 Méthodologie et échantillon 5 ● Méthodologie : CATI (Computer Assisted Telephone Interviews) mené par une vingtaine d’enquêteurs qui y ont collaboré après avoir été préalablement instruits sur la nature de la recherche; ils ont été assistés au démarrage de la prise d’information et surveillés tout au long de celle-ci.
