Findings, implications and lessons learned

Some statistical implications of this case study are as follows.

  1. It is seen from this case study that survey analysis does not always require formal statistical evaluation. Inferences can be made from tables and graphical presentations when the results are obvious. The graphical presentations give overall trends. Of course, when the results are not obvious, then they must be statistically quantified, and inferences made only if the results are statistically significant.
