Challenge the benchmark

Choose a score and give the benchmark a specific reason to reconsider it.

When you submit, the form attaches the current score and confidence for the country and capability you chose.

Submissions are public and start as awaiting review. A maintainer can add a response and signature after review.

Where does Cuba stand on Trust?

Dataset 9.3.0

This page reads one capability from the published data and is recomputed with every release. It separates what Cuba does, which makes the score, from what the country has, which sits beside the score, and places the country among the 10 countries at the nearest income. The text describes the data and recommends no policy.

The World Bank publishes no GDP per capita for Cuba, so the page forms no peer set and draws no comparison.

What does the score rest on?

Scorenot scoredConfidence0.07very thin evidence

No score in this release. Observed indicators: 1, under the minimum the model needs to form a mean.

The Trust score is the equal-weight mean of the positions of one indicators on a 0 to 100 scale that every country sets together. Confidence measures the evidence behind the score and sits beside it as a second number.

The Trust score tracks GDP per capita at r = 0.35 across 123 countries.

No comparable source yet, so lowering confidence: trust in public institutions and court case clearance rate.

No condition is published beside Trust in this release, so the page shows only the indicators that make the score.

Where does Cuba sit among its peers?

The World Bank publishes no GDP per capita for Cuba, so the page forms no peer set and draws no comparison.

What this reading does not show

  • A national score is a coarse proxy. A capability forms in firms, cities, networks and groups below the level of the country, and a national average only describes the conditions they work in.
  • Peers share income and nothing else. Size, production structure, region and political regime are outside the rule, and a set of 10 countries can change with any revision to GDP.
  • An r reads the whole set at once and says nothing about one country alone. A correlation does not show a cause either.
  • The known artefacts that bear on Trust, described on the limits page: artefact A3, artefact A6, artefact A12.
  • And the ones every score in the benchmark carries: artefact A8, artefact A10.
