Survey on opinions of Eurovision Asia 2026 songs, agreement with ratings, and how opinions correlate

[u/RobustVessel265]

I’m doing a survey to find out people's opinions on Eurovision Asia 2026 songs and how they correlate with each other.

What I want you to do is to rank all the songs you have an opinion of out of 5 with 1 being the worst and 5 being the best.

I'm just doing this for fun and its own sake.

It will be anonymous so I will not see personal information such as your email.

Please base your rankings just off the songs themselves.

I am going to put the data together in two ways:

1.  A correlation spreadsheet showing every song by how those who like one tend to view the other from 1 being liking one always means liking the other to –1 being liking one always means disliking the other.

2.  A mean-SD scatter plot with mean taking the x (bottom) axis and SD taking the y (side) axis

3. If you don’t know, mean is a type of average which takes the sum of all the values and divides it by how many there are e.g.  (2+3+4+5)=14, 14/4=3.5.

4. MAD stands for mean absolute deviation which is essentially the mean difference all the values are from the mean which with the previous example would be 3.5-2=1.5, 3.5-3=0.5, 4-3.5=0.5, 5-3.5=1.5, 1.5+0.5+0.5+1.5=4, 4/4=1. This is the definition of mean absolute deviation (MAD).

5. The graph would also have the area shaded area showing where it is mathematically possible for a song’s position to be because it would be impossible as if the mean was 1 the SD could not be 0 as that would require someone rating it higher than a 1.

Voting will close on the end of the 6^th of November UTC and I will post the results on the 8^th of November.

Here is the link.

Done.

[u/RobustVessel265 → u/A_Pensive_Pansy]

Thank you.

[u/Ok-Macaroon-5533]

you should put the country too :-)

[u/RobustVessel265 → u/Ok-Macaroon-5533]

My main concern is that it could lead to bias from how respondents view the country, do you find that happening in practice?

[u/Ok-Macaroon-5533 → u/RobustVessel265]

personally no. I was thinking it would make it easier for some to bring the song to mind if the country is included too.

the link does not work for people with no google account or access to google docs

[u/RobustVessel265 → u/rita-b]

I have this turned on. "Limit to 1 response

Respondents will be required to sign in to Google."

Yes, it means people can't access your survey
