Singapore listed as 8th most ignorant country in research by Ipsos MORI

The latest research by Ipsos MORI, the second largest market research organisation in the United Kingdom, places Singapore on the 8th most ignorant countries out of 40 countries in the world.

The latest Ipsos Perils of Perception survey highlights how wrong the public across 40 countries are about key global issues and features of the population in their country.

The key patterns are:

Most countries think their population is much more Muslim than it actually is – and that the Muslim population is increasing at an incredible rate.
All countries think their population is less happy than they actually say they are.
Most countries are more tolerant on homosexuality, abortion and pre-marital sex than they think they are.
And nearly all countries think wealth is more evenly distributed than it actually is.
Looking across the five questions on factual realities, there are clear patterns in which countries have a more accurate view of their countries. To capture this, they have calculated the Ipsos “Index of Ignorance”, as shown in the table below.

India receives the "honour" of being the most inaccurate in their perceptions on these issues with China and the US also high up the list. The Netherlands are the most accurate, followed by Great Britain, with South Korea in third.

What is interesting is that Singaporeans feel that people in general, feel less happier than what they have said themselves to be.

Respondents were first asked the question, "Taking all things together, would you say you are: Very happy, Rather happy, Not very happy, Not at all happy, and Don’t know."

Following that, the respondent was then asked, "When asked in a survey in [country], what percentage of people do you think said that, taking all things together, they are very happy or rather happy?"

The results show that Singapore scored a 46% difference from their own happiness and others.

Singaporeans also do not have the idea of how many people actually do not own a house.

Singapore had the lowest score when it comes to underestimating the number of people in the country.

Bobby Duffy, Managing Director of Ipsos MORI Social Research Institute, London, said, "Across all 40 countries in the study, each population gets a lot wrong. We are often most incorrect on factors that are widely discussed in the media, such as the proportion of our population that are Muslims and wealth inequality. We know from previous studies that this is partly because we over-estimate what we worry about."

"But in this new study we also show that we’re often unduly pessimistic about how happy people are and our tolerance on controversial issues such as homosexuality, sex before marriage and abortion. In many countries, particularly in the West, we have a picture of our population that is unduly miserable and intolerant. This is important: we know what people think of as the norm is important in affecting their own views and behaviours."

Also interesting to note that respondents in Singapore were not asked questions about how they perceive homosexuality, abortion and etc because there are no similar surveys conducted on the issue, which raises a particular question about how the social consensus in Singapore on various issues are actually measured in reality.

"We also get facts wrong that will make us focus on some issues more than they perhaps deserve: for example, we tend to think our populations are much less likely to own their own home than they actually are. In many countries we have received the message loud and clear that pressure on housing and affordability are serious issues, but we’ve underestimated how many still own their home."

"There are multiple reasons for these errors – from our struggle with simple maths and proportions, to media coverage of issues, to social psychology explanations of our mental shortcuts or biases. It is also clear from our “Index of Ignorance” that the countries who tend to do worst have relatively low internet penetrations: given this is an online survey, this will reflect the fact that this more middle-class and connected population think the rest of their countries are more like them than they really are," he said.

新加坡在Ipsos MORI的研究中被列为第8个最无知的国家

Ipsos MORI的最新研究，是英国第二大市场研究机构，将新加坡列为世界上40个国家中第8个最无知的国家。

最新的Ipsos Perception of Perception调查强调了40个国家的公众对全国人口的关键全球问题和特征的错误。

关键模式是：

大多数国家认为他们的人口比实际的穆斯林多得多 - 而且穆斯林人口以令人难以置信的速度增长。
所有国家认为他们的人口不如他们实际上说的那样快乐。
大多数国家对同性恋，堕胎和婚前性行为都比他们认为的更容忍。
几乎所有国家都认为财富比实际上更均匀分布。
关于事实现实的五个问题，有明确的模式，各国对其国家有更准确的看法。为了捕捉这一点，他们计算了Ipsos的“无知的指数”，如下表所示。

印度获得的“荣誉”是他们对这些问题的看法中最不准确的，中国和美国也列在名单上。荷兰是最准确的，其次是英国，韩国排名第三。

有趣的是，新加坡人感到，一般的人，感觉比他们自己说的更快乐。

受访者首先问的问题是，“把所有的东西放在一起，你会说你是：非常高兴，相当快乐，不是很高兴，不高兴，不知道。

随后，被访者被问及：“当在[国家]的一项调查中被问及时，你认为所有的东西在一起，他们是非常高兴还是相当快乐？

结果表明，新加坡与自己的幸福和其他人相比有46％的差异。

伦敦Ipsos MORI社会研究所董事总经理Bobby Duffy说：“在所有40个国家的研究中，每个人都有很多错误，我们常常在媒体上广泛讨论的因素，例如我们的人口比例是穆斯林和财富不平等，我们从以前的研究中知道，这部分是因为我们高估了我们担心什么。

“但在这项新的研究中，我们也表明，我们经常对人们的幸福感过度悲观，以及我们对有争议的问题，如同性恋，婚姻和堕胎之前的性行为的宽容，在许多国家，特别是在西方，这是很重要的：我们知道人们认为，规范对于影响他们自己的观点和行为是很重要的。

还有趣的是，新加坡的受访者没有被问及他们如何看待同性恋，堕胎等问题，因为没有对这个问题进行类似的调查，这提出了一个特别的问题，如何实际测量新加坡的社会共识事实上。

“我们也得到错误的事实，这将使我们关注一些问题比他们可能应该得到的更多：例如，我们倾向于认为我们的人口不太可能拥有自己的家，而不是实际上在许多国家，我们收到了消息大声和清楚，房屋压力和可负担性是严重的问题，但我们低估了仍有多少人仍然拥有自己的家。

“这些错误有多种原因 - 从我们简单的数学和比例，媒体报道的问题，到社会心理学解释我们的心理快捷或偏见的斗争，从我们的”无知的指数“往往是做得最差的互联网渗透率相对较低：鉴于这是一个在线调查，这将反映这一更多的中产阶级和连接的人口认为他们的国家更像他们比他们真正是，“他说。

The problem with such research firm is it's proven that all poll and survey are too erred to conclude any result as shown in the case of presidential election 2016. Every survey or poll will only work for the few organizations to support certain objective in policy setting or new business trend/opportunities but never indicative of the real situation irregardless of how well the survey is designed. The credibility of these so called international research firms are grossly over stated and deeply flawed in their failure to conduct through credible methods and sources. Based on how many respondent is also not stated, what is their demographic etc. I don't see how HK over stating by 700k is better than Singaporean understating by 500k in population number can be used as an indicator of ignorant too. Just another time wasting survey and one of those not so fake news that doesn't required an article written but is done anyway.

I dont think the questionaire is well designed

in high percentage house ownership countries like China, India, Singapore, the estimate error tend to be high; in low ownership countries, the error tends to be low; so the amount reflects something besides ignorance

if the population is 5.5 million and someone says 5 million, it is not very ignorant; I think if this is the largest error you find 10%, I would say the people gave quite accurate answers about their own countries population
