What are the requirements for improving survey research methods?

The requirements for improving investigation and research in the eight-point regulations of the Central Committee are:

First: engage in more "small teams" and less "large units." The most feared thing during the survey is the "swarm of bees" and "big roar", which are so vast and powerful that the sound has been heard before anyone arrives. Such surveys are often more exciting, less effective, and more in vain. We should advocate traveling with ease, forming a capable team, trying not to alarm the media, reducing local accompaniment, inserting one pole among the masses, using actions to eliminate distance, and using footsteps to measure people's sentiments, so that it is easier to hear the truth and find out the truth.

Second: Do more "crouching pose" and less "dragonfly pose". It is a taboo in research work to be vague and vague, to be satisfied with what you have been here and see, and to be vague and half-informed. The best research is to focus on outstanding issues and thorny problems in economic and social development, form a capable team, and go to representative places for ten days and a month to truly understand the situation clearly. In the process of dissecting the "sparrow" Discussing solutions with the masses is the most fruitful research method.

Third: Do more "embedding" and less "two skins". This means embedding research into work organically, rather than mechanically arranging research outside of daily work. The ultimate purpose of research is to promote work. In addition to going to the grassroots level, we also use methods such as holding symposiums, issuing solicitation letters, and individual communication to promptly solicit opinions and suggestions from all parties on relevant issues. This itself is also a type of research. valid form.

Fourth: Engage in more "borrowing style" and less "single style". Currently, all units attach great importance to research and have formulated detailed research plans. However, representative points at the grassroots level are often limited, and many surveys are inevitably overlapping and repetitive. We must start from the actual results. We don’t need to go or go less often to places where others have already visited and investigated and have mature research results. Learn more and draw on other people's previous results, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort. Another example is that the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference have relatively ample time, and the research conducted by scientific research institutions and colleges and universities is relatively systematic. The party committee and government can rely more on and learn from their research results to directly serve decision-making.
