Defining an objective & problem Determining appropriate research design Designing Research instrument Sampling and collecting data Analyzing Data Interpreting Data (Conclusion) Communicating Results In this stage, the researchers analyze and interpret the data. That is, they study the data very careful and draw conclusions from it. These conclusions are then used to reach the objective, or solve the problem. Analyzing any survey consists of a number of interrelated processes that are intended to summarize, arrange, and transform data into information. If your survey objective was simply to collect data for your database or data warehouse, you do not have to do any analysis of the data. On the other hand, if your objective was to understand the characteristics of typical customers, then you must transform you raw results in to information that will enable you to paint a clear picture of your customers. Assuming you need to analyze the data collected from your survey, the process begins with a quick review of the results, followed by editing, analysis, interpreting, and reporting. To ensure you have accurate data before investing significant time in analysis, it is important that you do not begin analyzing results until you have completed the review and editing process.
