Data Analysis
We use SPSS, a statistical software package, to tabulate all closed-ended numerical data, while open-ended questions are either summarized, coded, or included as written by respondents. Data is presented in graphic and tabular formats, detailing the number of respondents for each question. Sample sizes may vary throughout the report due to skip logic, data cleaning, or missing responses, and some totals may not equal 100% due to rounding. Key metrics include the mean (arithmetic average) and median (middle value of responses). Net values, such as top 2 box scores, may not match individual percentages due to rounding. Sample sizes are indicated as 'n=xx,' with sizes of 30 or more considered statistically reliable, while those below 15 are interpreted directionally. Statistical significance is highlighted at a 90% confidence level, showing results that are likely not due to chance. Significant differences between response options are clearly indicated in the report.
