Questionnaire

Build your profile in three passes: first your direction within each dimension, then the salience of each dimension, then your final explicit score review.

The questionnaire asks you to score 14 categories across 7 dimensions. Each category is an alternative viewpoint on the same issue. They are not contradictory, so you can balance your score between them.

There are three steps to answering the questionnaire:

1.
Step 1: allocate your relative scores across each of the seven dimensions, one by one. Please move the slider to indicate your preference.
2.
Step 2: indicate how important each of the seven dimensions is to you, in your priorities. You have 140 points to spend. If you spend all 140 points in one dimension, that means it is of the utmost importance to you and the other dimensions are not important at all. 20 points spent in each dimension, summing to 140 across all 7, means that each dimension is of equal importance.
3.
Step 3: your draft scores are presented to you to check before you submit. The scores combine the relative ranking that you submitted in step one with the salience ranking that you submitted in step two. Please check your scores to ensure that they accurately reflect your preferences. You can adjust the numbers directly.

How the state should shape the economy: taxation, public spending, redistribution, and fiscal discipline.

Redistributive
The state plays an active role in shaping economic outcomes through taxation, public spending, and redistribution, with the aim of influencing growth, stability, and social outcomes.
Spend more on public services, welfare and infrastructure — funded through higher taxes or borrowing.
Restrained
The state limits its role in directing economic outcomes, prioritising balanced budgets, low taxation, and reliance on market mechanisms to allocate resources.
Keep taxes down, limit public spending, and prioritise balancing the books even if that means fewer programmes.

Move the slider to set the balance within this dimension. Left gives more weight to redistributive; right gives more weight to restrained.

Tip: step 3 is intentionally explicit. If you want to stress-test edge cases, you can still type any final 14-number allocation there, as long as the total is 140.
