Current status
Research version
The current system checks scoring consistency, question counts, result generation and result generation rules. This establishes implementation consistency, not psychometric validity.
VALIDATION & LIMITATIONS
Clear about what is proven—and what is not.
The scoring logic is tested for technical consistency. Psychometric validity, cross-language equivalence and independent scientific validation requires separate evidence.
Not yet established
- Representative population norms
- Test–retest reliability
- Construct equivalence across languages and age bands
- Cognitive comprehension with intended Junior and Youth users
- Predictive validity for voting or political behaviour
Do not overread the result
Scores are indicators generated by the current model. A number such as 61/100 is not a scientific probability that somebody “is” an ideology. Historical reference figures illustrate traditions; they do not imply endorsement or equivalence.
Intended use
This is an educational self-reflection instrument, not a scientifically validated measure of political identity or a voting recommendation.
