How often do you hear: 50% of Russians like to spend weekends in shopping malls, 75% do not eat vegetables, 62% for the abolition of the moratorium on the death penalty, while 20% go to live in the winter in warm countries?More precisely the question is not even that, but how often do you think in this case - where do these numbers, and that is for the Russians ...
And really, where?
«Public opinion" and "statistics" has always been very controversial topics - someone claims that public opinion does not exist, and the statistics - the most blatant lie in the world, someone, on the contrary, in the discussions and debates constantly refersat the numbers as if to confirm his innocence.
More Exupery wrote that "Adults love numbers.When you tell them that you have a new friend, they never ask about the most important.They never say, "And what is his voice? What kind of games he likes to play? Catches he butterflies?"They ask: "How old is he? What he take? How much does he weigh? What makes his father?"And then imagine that the learned man. "
But, the problem is not even that "adult" so fond of numbers, but in the fact that many are very fond of them, or come up with, as they say, to embellish.It just does not appeal to statistics lazy, because often it seems that if the text or figures of speech is, the data acquired greater importance and credibility.That is why even in the school, when writing essays require indicate links to the sources, so you can check the information on authenticity.
ordering the firm N any market research, do you want come up with statistics?It is focusing on the findings you have paved the way forward of the company.
you consider normal that your mind is not at all in any statistics, it is simply not taken into account - not the media, writing about public opinion or firms making products for you, neither by any other authorities?
Strangely enough, sites for collection of public opinion a lot, but some have not yet earned the trust others have lost it.In particular, by regular surveys registered with the results known in advance, because you see, sense to participate in such research is not there.To find something really worthwhile and interesting will have to spend some time, but the result will be different.
Participation in the survey does not suggest the presence of some special knowledge - virtually anyone can quickly and easily answer most questions or create your own poll.
Service "survey" is currently on many sites, but of course, their capacity is very, very limited, primarily in technical terms, therefore, to conduct online research is still better to use a professional tool designed specifically for this.Just like in life, for example, if you make pancakes on an ordinary frying pan, they will also receive, but, you see, have not those which would be obtained at a special - a pancake.Specialized services are always out of competition.
It is with the help of professional tool, you can create a profile with different types of questions, logical branching, thereby making an online survey of more individual.And best of all, in dealing with such services, this treatment of the results, you do not have to calculate anything, transcribed and analyzed, - everything happens automatically.Also delight ways output in the form of visual tables / charts and multiple filters that let you see the answers according to the given parameters.A "ubiquitous" Internet makes it easy to distribute and collect the questionnaire results, so necessary statistics practically in your hands, and it is nothing like public opinion.
As they say, want to do good - do it yourself.Public opinion polls are available as never before - both as a participant and as the researcher!
