Abstract
The first question that you need to answer is: do you need to conduct a survey?The main advantage of a survey is to create new data that are not available from other sources.This is achieved through survey questions that are specifically designed to answer your research questions.In this respect, questionnaire surveys are research driven.Yet, compared to other methods of obtaining data on organizations, such as using existing data or creating new data through case studies, a series of interviews, or extracting and compiling data from the internet, surveys can be expensive.Surveys are not necessarily more difficult than other methods of creating new data, but they can be more complex and therefore require disciplined attention to detail -no skipping tasks or taking short cuts, at least without careful evaluation of the implications of a short cut for response rates and data quality.Surveys also create a 'response burden' for respondents, who must expend effort and time to complete a survey questionnaire.To minimize costs to yourself and to potential respondents, a careful evaluation of other data sources should be conducted before a decision to proceed with a survey.An evaluation of other data sources can identify data that are unavailable and

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
