Abstract

Researchers at the Institute of Sociology have developed a decision vector model to predict social behavior, specifically focusing on the 2013 Moscow mayoral elections. By analyzing pre-election surveys and adjusting conversion rates for different answers, the model accurately predicted voter turnout. The study highlights the potential of integrating social-structural variables into models of mass behavior and emphasizes the importance of understanding circumstances that shape behavior. For more information, readers can refer to the RUDN Journal of Sociology. [Extracted from the article]
