Abstract
L'orientation politique est souvent operationnalisee comme un continuum unidimensionnel gauche-droite. Cependant, des recherches suggerent que cette conceptualisation pourrait etre trop simpliste. La presente etude visait a examiner la structure de l'orientation politique aupres d'un echantillon de 190 politiciens qui etaient candidats aux elections federales canadiennes de 2006. Les participants ont complete des mesures d'attitudes envers differentes questions politiques (questions de conservatisme social, questions de competition economique), croyances ideologiques (autoritarisme de droite, orientation a dominance sociale) et valeurs abstraites (conservation, autopromotion) comme indicateurs d'orientation politique. Des analyses factorielles confirma-toires ont demontre que la structure de l'orientation politique etait le mieux expliquee par deux dimensions moderement correlees: gauche-droite sociale et gauche-droite economique. Les differences entre les partis politiques en ce qui a trait aux indicateurs d'orientation politique sont aussi discutees.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
