If the goal is to infer

that opinion has on probability to respond, even if the model chosen
is that it has no influence.

I think I see your point here. The desired model would have to be
created by surveying responsiveness conditional on the level of
opinion, wouldn't it?

Right! One would have to have another survey before the real
survey :).

Being an amateur in Ststs, I wouln't propose anything. I'd leave it to
a pro.

Perhaps you are an amateur in stats, but since this is social
anthropology or something, go for it :).
