注意事項

 兩項評分是否高低分明可根據兩者的差值及誤差判別。在95%置信水平下,判別距離約等於兩個標準誤差。
 
 榜上有名與無名的分別,可能是基於某議員的認知率是否僅可合格。因此,該等認知率的比較應視為第一基準,支持度則為第二基準。某議員可能今次名列前矛,但下次則五大不入。原因可能因為其認知率未乎理想。認知率與支持度之間並無必然關係。



Points to Note

 

Whether two ratings are statistically distinguishable depends on the value of their difference and the standard errors of their scores. Generally speaking, at 95% confidence level, a difference of over two standard errors can be taken as meaningful.

 
 

Whether a legislator  is on the list or not is sometimes marginally determined by one's recognition rate. Higher recognition rate means more people know of the person, and can be taken as the first benchmark in comparing popularity. Support rating is the second, and the two are not necessarily related. If the recognition rate of a person is only marginal, one could top the list this time, but drop out completely next time.
