Summary

Machine summary

A Southern Theater Command Navy unit's headquarters discovered that officers and soldiers were systematically selecting 'C' (very satisfied) on quarterly ideological-trend surveys without reading the questions, prompting Staff Officer Li to combine questionnaire data with embedded squad-level conversations and 'venting sessions' (吐槽会) before reporting the dysfunction upward rather than filing routine statistics. The article documents a specific failure mode in political work (政治工作): feedback loops that never close erode grassroots willingness to report honestly, producing ideological data the headquarters cannot trust. The fix the unit adopted — online reporting via the Qiangjun Network, categorized problem tracking, and visible follow-through on issues like dependent medical coverage and school transport — is framed as a product of the unit's ongoing political rectification training (政治整训) targeting formalism (形式主义), making this a case study in how that campaign is being applied to internal survey methodology rather than evidence of a broader posture change.

调查问卷为啥都选“C” ——南部战区海军某部机关改进调研作风的一段经历 ■刘博宇解放军报记者陈晓杰那一次，南部战区海军某部开展季度官兵思想调查，让该部李干事陷入深思——官兵提交问卷速度很快，可统计结果一出来，他却犯了嘀咕：“怎么都选的‘C’（非常满意）？” “选‘C’的官兵多，说明单位官兵思想状况稳定。”同事劝李干事别想多了，可他还是忍不住琢磨：这结果真能如实反映官兵思想底数吗？ “别看了，都选‘C’准没错。”填问卷时，几名官兵的窃窃私语，让李干事印象深刻。利用昼检夜查的时机，他结合问卷内容，与不同单位官兵谈心交流。深入了解后，他发现官兵真实思想状态，并非一个“C”选项就能概括。 “其实，填问卷时后面的题目我都没读”“我都忘记调查问卷啥内容了”……李干事了解到，个别战士觉得，每次填问卷，内容、选项都差不多，选“C”最省事，吐露真实心声不仅显得不合群，说不定还会给自己带来麻烦；还有战士反映，部分问卷题目答案选项较为单一，无法从选项中找到最能表达自己想法的答案，只能笼统地都选“C”。机关以往也会做一些思想调查，李干事对问卷结果没太往心里去，只是机械做好统计上报的工作。今年以来，该部持续开展政治整训，重点纠治重程序轻实效、查改脱节等形式主义问题，深入推进思想清理、作风整治，全面整改机关干部思想麻痹、作风不实等突出问题。这让李干事沉下心来，对手头工作进行审视反思。 “一项工作干久了，容易产生惯性和思想麻痹。”这次，李干事没有简单按惯例上报问卷结果，而是在交班会上汇报了调研发现的问题。思想动态调查问卷，是感知兵心、掌握实情的重要窗口，决不能流于形式、走了过场。该部领导研究认为，思想调查不被基层官兵重视，表面上看是问卷调查内容不够贴合官兵实际，部分题目、选项设置笼统；深层次看，是因为个别干部以往工作重程序轻实效，问题反馈未形成闭环，挫伤了官兵敞开心扉讲真话、说实情的积极性。提高政治工作质效，必先把准官兵思想脉搏。该部党委决定，仍由李干事牵头，从优化思想调查问卷题库、创新调研方式、强化结果运用等方面入手，推动思想调查落细落实。这次，李干事开始下功夫收集官兵对于问卷形式、问卷内容的意见建议，将问卷问题和选项内容进一步细化—— 调研方式上，采取“线上+线下”“集中+分散”相结合的形式。线上依托强军网开设留言板等，官兵可随时反映问题；线下鼓励机关干部深入班排蹲点，通过“拉家常”“吐槽会”等形式，在聊天中了解官兵真实想法。对调研结果，实行“问题收集、分类处理、反馈跟踪”闭环机制，机关及时梳理汇总，明确责任部门和解决时限，处理结果通过营区公示栏、电子屏等渠道及时向官兵反馈。再次开展问卷调查，基层官兵发现问卷更接地气、问题更有针对性、选项更多更细。大家不再简单选“C”，而是认真思考、如实填写，问卷上出现了更多个性化答案和具体建议。最近，针对个别舰艇官兵反映的“军属医疗保障”“孩子上学接送距离较远”等问题，李干事及时将官兵问卷反映的思想动向和具体意见建议汇总提交。相关部门很快依据相关规定，安排了军属医疗保障政策宣讲，同时调派车辆，实现营区学生集体接送。
