How to Report on Surveys

By Arlene G. Fink and Arlene Fink

"I liked the addition of computerized slide presentations and the description of best presentation styles."

--Juanita M. Firestone, University of Texas, San Antonio

"Fink does a good job discussing different presentation formats, and emphasizes the link between the type of audience and the type of results report. She also goes to some length discussing graphic "illusions," or ways different presentations can alter the appearance of the same data."

Patrick R. Powaser, Personnel Psychology
