minus-squarejsomae@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down1·4 months agoYou’ve explained what +n means, but not what +n favourability means.
minus-squareChef@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17·4 months agoThat’s the gap between favorable and unfavorable. Take 100 people. 60 find you favorable 40 find you unfavorable You have a +20 favorability. Now take 100 people 30 find you favorable 70 find you unfavorable You have a -40 favorability. As for the definition, “Favorable” could be just asking “would you vote for x?” Yes or No. That part I am not 100% certain on. I am not an expert at polling.

What does +n favourability mean?
+n = the range of numbers from zero to infinity
-n = the range of numbers from negative one to negative infinity
You’ve explained what +n means, but not what +n favourability means.
That’s the gap between favorable and unfavorable.
Take 100 people.
60 find you favorable 40 find you unfavorable
You have a +20 favorability.
Now take 100 people
30 find you favorable 70 find you unfavorable
You have a -40 favorability.
As for the definition, “Favorable” could be just asking “would you vote for x?” Yes or No.
That part I am not 100% certain on. I am not an expert at polling.
It means your favor has increased could be it went from a favorabality of 0 to 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001
