- # CES Phase 3B LoRA: With Party ID
20
 
21
- LoRA adapter that includes party identification as an input variable. **For most use cases, prefer [Phase 3A](https://huggingface.co/baglecake/ces-phase3a-lora) instead.**

25
- | Model | Variables | r |
26
- |-------|-----------|---|
27
- | Phase 3A | Demographics + Leader Ratings + Wedge Issues | 0.560 |
28

30
- **Partisan Delta = 0.014** (essentially zero)
31
 
32
  ## Why Phase 3A is Preferred
33
 
34
- Adding party ID only improves correlation by 1.4%. This proves party identity is **redundant** it's already encoded in leader affect and policy positions.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
35
 
36
- Phase 3B exists for reproducibility and to demonstrate this null result.

+ # CES Phase 3B LoRA: With Party Identification
20
 
21
+ A LoRA adapter for Llama 3.1 8B Instruct that predicts political ideology using party identification in addition to leader ratings and policy positions.
22
+
23
+ **For most use cases, prefer [Phase 3A](https://huggingface.co/baglecake/ces-phase3a-lora) instead** — this model exists to demonstrate that party ID is redundant.
24
+
25
+ ## Model Description
26
+
27
+ This model was trained on the Canadian Election Study (CES) 2021 to predict self-reported ideology (0-10 left-right scale) from:
28
+
29
+ - **Demographics**: Age, gender, province, education, employment, religion, marital status, urban/rural, born in Canada
30
+ - **Leader Thermometers**: Ratings (0-100) of Justin Trudeau, Erin O'Toole, and Jagmeet Singh
31
+ - **Wedge Issues**: Positions on carbon tax, energy/pipelines, and medical assistance in dying (MAID)
32
+ - **Government Satisfaction**: Overall satisfaction with federal government
33
+ - **Party Identification**: "I usually think of myself as a Liberal/Conservative/NDP..." (ONLY IN THIS MODEL)
34
 
35
  ## Performance
36
 
37
+ | Model | Inputs | Correlation (r) |
38
+ |-------|--------|-----------------|
39
+ | Phase 2 | Demographics + 3 psychographics | 0.428 |
40
+ | Phase 3A | + Leader thermometers + wedge issues | 0.560 |
41
+ | **Phase 3B (this model)** | **+ Party ID** | **0.574** |
42
 
43
+ **Partisan Delta = 0.014** Party ID adds only 1.4% improvement.
44
 
45
  ## Why Phase 3A is Preferred
46
 
47
+ We trained this model (Phase 3B) specifically to test whether party identification adds predictive value beyond substantive attitudes. It doesn't.
48
+
49
+ **The null result is the finding:**
50
+ - Party identity is **redundant** — it's already encoded in how people feel about leaders and their policy positions
51
+ - Canadian ideology is **substantive, not tribal** — people's "team" reflects their actual views
52
+ - Adding party ID is "cheating" — you're just asking people their ideology with extra steps
53
+
54
+ Phase 3B exists for reproducibility and to demonstrate this null result empirically.
55
+
56
+ ## Usage
57
+
58
+ ```python
59
+ from peft import PeftModel
60
+ from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
61
 
62
+ base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
63
+ "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct",
64
+ load_in_4bit=True
65
+ )
66
+ model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, "baglecake/ces-phase3b-lora")
67
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct")
68
+
69
+ # Example prompt (note: includes party ID)
70
+ system = """You are a 45-year-old man from Ontario, Canada. You live in a suburb of a large city. Your highest level of education is a bachelor's degree. You are currently employed full-time. You are married. You have children. You are Catholic. You were born in Canada.
71
+
72
+ Political Profile:
73
+ Leader Ratings: Justin Trudeau: 25/100, Erin O'Toole: 70/100, Jagmeet Singh: 30/100.
74
+ Views: Strongly disagrees that the federal government should continue the carbon tax; strongly agrees that the government should do more to help the energy sector/pipelines.
75
+ Overall Satisfaction: Is not at all satisfied with the federal government.
76
+ Party ID: Generally thinks of themselves as a Conservative.
77
+
78
+ Answer survey questions as this person would, based on their background and detailed political profile."""
79
+
80
+ user = "On a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 means left/liberal and 10 means right/conservative, where would you place yourself politically? Just give the number."
81
+ ```
82
 
83
  ## Training Details
84
 
85
  - **Base model**: meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct (4-bit quantized via Unsloth)
86
+ - **Training data**: 14,455 examples from CES 2021
87
  - **LoRA rank**: 32
88
  - **LoRA alpha**: 64
89
+ - **Target modules**: q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, o_proj, gate_proj, up_proj, down_proj
90
  - **Epochs**: 3
91
+ - **Hardware**: NVIDIA A100 40GB (Colab Pro)
92
+
93
+ ## Limitations
94
+
95
+ 1. **Narrow task**: Model only outputs ideology numbers (0-10).
96
+ 2. **Canadian-specific**: Trained on CES 2021 under Trudeau government.
97
+ 3. **Leader-specific**: Uses 2021 leader names.
98
+ 4. **Redundant information**: Party ID doesn't add meaningful predictive value over Phase 3A.
