Claim One:
1. A method to convert spontaneous, subjective responses of network respondents into statistical opinion data, comprising: a computer communications network comprising at least one uniform resource identifier comprising at least one subject, and at least one respondent able to input at least one subjective response regarding at least one said subject; at least one computer controlled survey form delivered to said respondent requesting to respond to said subject, wherein said survey form comprises at least one fixed vocabulary question answered using an answer mechanism to select a response from one or more answer choices, and a function allowing said respondent to save changes to said survey form; said survey form further comprising: generalized phrasing of said fixed vocabulary question enabling relation to any said subject, said answer choices each comprising one pair of antonyms, each said antonym consisting of a word of definite character naming an unambiguous human value, belief, opinion, feeling, emotion, or judgment, and said answer mechanism is utilized to indicate one said antonym as said response, wherein more than one said answer choice may be responded to by said respondent per said survey; conversion of said subjective responses into mathematical values, comprising: said antonym pair further comprising the assignment of mathematical value negative X to one said antonym and the assignment of mathematical value positive X to the opposing antonym, said answer mechanism providing for scaled indication of said response anywhere within the continuum between said mathematical values, at least one said indication and utilization of said function to save changes to said survey form creating a converted response comprising at least one mathematical value associated with one said antonym relating to one said subject, wherein no use of said answer mechanism results in a value of 0 assigned to all said antonyms and does not produce a converted response; and at least one information processing system to deliver said survey form to said respondent, receive said converted response data, and assign identifiers to elements involved in said converted response for conductivity to database processing and delivery of outputs, said outputs comprising statistical opinion data regarding said subjects on said network.
