Breaking the bogus: Are surveys commissioned mind-conditioning tools used to influence us?


Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Mayor Sara Duterte's Spox and Liloan Cebu Mayor Christina Frasco says the latest Pulse Asia Survey indicates that the people see in Mayor Sara "the President that we need and the President that we can trust."

If Sara runs, then she lost her word of honor saying only one Duterte will run in the national election....unless Digong is not really running for VP. Btw, history will say that not all who lead on surveys do win.

Has anyone been a respondent to any survey? Most likely no. Sample sizes are small relative to size of the population. If you were buying lanzones by the basket, you won’t  try every fruit to see if they’re sweet. You’d test with a sample of one. And that’s how a survey works.

Paano nga ba nila pinipili yung respondents lalo ngayong pandemic? Online ba? Random? Naghihintay nga rin ako ma-contact eh. Gustong-gusto ko sumagot ng mga pa-survey na yan lalo na yung FalseAsia.

My favorite analogy in explaining survey research is that of blood testing. Just a quick prick and a few drops, no need to extract so much blood, to know your blood type.

While we may not be able to trust Pulse Asia, saying that you’ve never been surveyed isn’t an indicator of it being bogus.

However, former Senator Sonny Trillanes says Pulse Asia keeps insisting to use respondents of Davao City to represent the whole Mindanao population.

"That is clearly a sampling design error and, therefore, invalid. Pulse Asia, historically, keeps on insisting to use respondents of Davao City to generalize or represent the population for the whole Mindanao. This is not valid anymore..."

So there could really be a way to manipulate survey results.

Similarly, if you do the survey in Ilocos, BBM will surely lead in his turf.

'False' Asia once came out with Duterte's satisfaction net rating at 88%! Whereas, SWS few days ago released their survey at 45%, and showed the continuing decline based on the last two quarters. 

How can Pulse Asia be so missing the ball having a huge difference compared with the results of another survey firm?

How comfortable to use their data when it favors your agenda and how easy it is to discredit their company when it doesn't. 

The probable reason is that misinformed kasi mga tao dahil sa mga paid trolls ng gobyerno. Ang laki ng mga hindi maipaliwanag na pinaggamitan ng pondo... From the "intelligence fund" of the president to the pandemic response funds, walang transparency on how these funds were used.

Remember when Facebook announced they found several FB pages operating propaganda activities for the Dutertes. 

Duterte even threatened Facebook saying the said pages were "advocacy" groups, as if admitting he is aware that the government uses them and thus could really be on their payroll.

In any case, we should not let surveys influence us especially if we have set our heart and mind on the right people. Don't let the popularity or winnability  of certain candidates decide on our choice.
