Lesson
1
Writes Various Reports
on Surveys
What’s In
Study the chart below. Then, answer the following questions.
1. This graph shows number of cases as of what date?
2. Which country has the highest case of Covid 19 cases as of the given date?
3. How many countries are included in the chart?
4. In your own opinion, why is the United States the highest in the list?
5. In 3-5 sentences, sum up the points shown by the graph.

10. 7
Survey reports make recommendations based on a careful analysis of data
tallied and organized from survey findings. A good survey report requires you to
systematically move from a big-picture summary down to your specific
recommendations. How you write it determines whether you convince others to follow
your advice or you are ignored. (Samuel Hamilton)
What is It
Once you have finished conducting a survey all that is left to do is write the
survey report.
A survey report describes a survey, its results, and any patterns or trends
found in the survey. Most survey reports follow a standard organization, broken
up under certain headings. Each section has a specific purpose.
Fill out each section correctly and proofread the paper to create a polished
and professional report.
Part 1: Break the report up into separate sections with headings. Survey
reports usually use headings for each section. While there may be slight differences
between reports, the headings are typically the same. The standard headings for a
report are:
o Title Page
o Table of Contents
o Executive Summary
o Background and Objectives
o Methodology
o Results
o Conclusion and Recommendations
o Appendices
What’s New

11. 8
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Write a 1-2 page executive summary paraphrasing the report. This comes at the
very beginning of the report, after the table of contents. An executive summary
condenses the main points of the report into a few pages. It should include:
o Background and Objectives
o Methodology of the survey.
o Key results of the survey.
o Conclusions drawn from the results of the survey.
o Recommendations based on the results of the survey.
State the objectives of the survey in the background section. Start the section
by saying why the survey was conducted. Explain the hypothesis and goals of the
survey. You usually don't need to write more than a page. Make sure to identify
the:[3]
o Study or target population: Who is being studied? Do they belong to a
certain age group, cultural group, religion, political belief, or other
common practice?
o Variables of the study: What is the survey trying to study? Is the
study looking for the association or relationship between two things?
o Purpose of the study: How will this information be used? What new
information can this survey help us realize?
Provide background information by explaining similar research and studies.
This research can help you determine if your survey results support current beliefs
on the topic or disagree with them. Write 2 or more pages explaining the issue and
how other researchers have approached it.[4]
o Look for surveys done by researchers in peer-viewed academic
journals. In addition to these, consult reports produced by similar
companies, organizations, newspapers, or think tanks.
o Compare their results to yours. Do your results support or conflict
with their claims? What new information does your report provide on
the matter?

12. 9
o Provide a description of the issue backed with peer-reviewed evidence.
Define what it is you're trying to learn and explain why other studies
haven't found this information.
Part 2: Explaining the methods and results
Explain how the study was conducted in the methodology section. This
section helps readers understand how the survey was conducted. It comes
after the background and objectives section. Depending on the complexity of
your study, this section may be several pages long. Some things you should
cover in this section include:[5]
o Who did you ask? How can you define the gender, age, and other
characteristics of these groups?
o Did you do the survey over email, telephone, website, or 1-on-1
interviews?
o Were participants randomly chosen or selected for a certain reason?
o How large was the sample size? In other words, how many people
answered the results of the survey?
o Were participants offered anything in exchange for filling out the
survey?

13. 10
Describe what type of questions were asked in the methodology section.
Some common types of questions include multiple choice, interviews, and
rating scales (called Likert scales). Describe the general theme of the
questions here, providing a few examples of questions.[6]
o For example, you might sum up the general theme of your questions
by saying, "Participants were asked to answer questions about their
daily routine and dietary practices."
o Don't put all of the questions in this section. Instead, include your
questionnaire in the first appendix (Appendix A).
Report the results of the survey in a separate section. Once you have
detailed the methodology of the survey in full, start a new section that shows
the results of the survey. This section is usually several pages long. If
needed, break up some of your results into bullets to make them easier to
read.
o If your survey interviewed people, choose a few relevant responses
and type them up in this section. Refer the reader to the full
questionnaire, which will be in the appendix.
o If your survey was broken up into multiple sections, report the results
of each section separately, with a subheading for each section.
o Avoid making any claims about the results in this section. Just report
the data, using statistics, sample answers, and quantitative data.
o Include graphs, charts and other visual representations of your data
in this section.

14. 11
Point out any interesting trends in the results section. You probably
have a large amount of data. To help your readers understand the
significance of your survey, highlight the interesting patterns, trends, or
observations.[8]
o For example, do people from a similar age group response to a certain
question in a similar way?
o Look at questions that received the highest number of similar
responses. This means that most people answer the question in
similar ways. What do you think that means?

15. 12
Part 3: Analyzing your results
State the implications of your survey at the beginning of the
conclusion. At the beginning of this section, write a paragraph that
summarizes the key takeaway points of your survey. Ask yourself what
should readers learn from this survey?
o Here you may break away from the objective tone of the rest of the
paper. You might state if readers should be alarmed, concerned, or
intrigued by something.
o For example, you might highlight how current policy is failing or state
how the survey demonstrates that current practices are succeeding.
Make recommendations about what needs to be done about this issue.
Once you have reported the results of the survey, state what the reader
should take away from the survey. What does the data imply? What action
should people take based on the results? This part might be anywhere from
a few paragraphs to a few pages long. Some common recommendations
include:
o More research needs to be done on this topic.
o Current guidelines or policy need to be changed.
o The company or institution needs to take action.

16. 13
Include graphs, charts, surveys, and testimonies in the appendices. The
first appendix (Appendix A) should always be the survey questionnaire itself.
Copy and paste the entire survey into this section. If you want, add
appendices showing your statistical data, interview results, graphs of the
data, and a glossary of technical terms.[11]
o Appendices are typically labeled with letters, such as Appendix A,
Appendix B, Appendix C, and so on.
o You may refer to appendices throughout your paper. For example, you
can say, “Refer to Appendix A for the questionnaire” or “Participants
were asked 20 questions (Appendix A)”.
Part 4: Polishing Your Report

17. 14
Add a title page and table of contents to the first 2 pages. These should
come at the front of the report. The first page should state the title of the
report, your name, and your institution. The second page should be a table
of contents.
o The table of contents should list the page numbers for each section
(or heading) of the report.
Cite your research according to the style required for the survey report.
In some classes and professional fields, you may be asked to format the
report according to a specific style guideline. Common ones used for survey
reports include American Psychological Association (APA) and Chicago
styles.
o Typically, you will cite information using in-text parenthetical
citations. Put the name of the author and other information, such as
the page number or year of publication, in parentheses at the end of a
sentence.
o Some professional organizations may have their own separate
guidelines. Consult these for more information.
o If you don’t need a specific style, make sure that the formatting for the
paper is consistent throughout. Use the same spacing, font, font size,
and citations throughout the paper.
Adopt a clear, objective voice throughout the paper. Remember that your
job is to report the results of the survey. Try not to cast judgment on the
participants or the survey results. If you would like to make
recommendations, only do so in the last section of the paper.[14]
o Try not to editorialize the results as you report them. For example,
don’t say, “The study shows an alarming trend of increasing drug use
that must be stopped.” Instead, just say, “The results show an
increase in drug use.”
o

18. 15
Write in concise, simple sentences. State the information in the simplest
way possible. Avoid flowery or complicated language. Since some surveys
can be very complex, a simple writing style will help your readers
understand your results.
o If you have a choice between a simple word and a complex word,
choose the simpler term. For example, instead of “1 out of 10 civilians
testify to imbibing alcoholic drinks thrice daily,” just say “1 out of 10
people report drinking alcohol 3 times a day.”
o Remove any unnecessary phrases or words. For example, instead of
“In order to determine the frequency of the adoption of dogs,” just say
“To determine the frequency of dog adoption.”
Revise your paper thoroughly before submitting. Make sure that there
are no grammatical errors, misspellings, or other typos in the paper. Before
submitting the report to your boss or professor, check that the formatting is
correct.
o Make sure you have page numbers on the bottom of the page. Check
that the table of contents contains the right page numbers.
o Remember, spell check on word processors doesn’t always catch every
mistake. Ask someone else to proofread for you to help you catch
errors.

19. 16
