No. Ninety-two percent of respondents said their productivity increased. That is the share reporting an improvement, not the size of the improvement or an experimental causal estimate.
This was an online practitioner sample concentrated among highly educated professionals in the US, UK, and Europe. Percentages are rounded as reported and question-level denominators are not provided in these slides. Do not back-calculate respondent counts or treat the sample as population-representative. Productivity is self-reported.
