Sometimes these statistical reports don' t even seem like their written in English. Take this sentence for example. " In the sample group consisting of 500 respondents, two out of every three households interviewed fell below the median level, while control group yielded an average of 62 infiltration." What are they talking about? It' s not as confusing as you think. The sample group is made up of the people you are studying, they are the ones who have filled out the surveys and handed in the rough data. The control group is a standard group that you can compare against. Average means the level that most people are at. Infiltration is just whether or not they have heard of our product. So what about this sentence? " Nearly 1 3 of respondents ranked in the 25th percentile nationwide, while less than 2 ranked in the top five percentile." You' re getting bogged down with the words. Think of it this way. Respondents are the people who responded to your survey. So 1 3 of the people are considered top 25 on a national standard. In this same group of people, fewer than 2 ranked in the top 5 nationally. Does that make more sense to you now? I guess so. Too many numbers. Too many words. |
