This week’s assignment sounds a lot harder than it really is – so don’t panic. You are going to be asked to conduct a survey and then present the findings in an APA formatted figure and table.

The APA manual addresses how to do this in this week’s readings (Chapter 7).

The following website my also be of assistance: https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/tables-figures/

As with a lot of the assignments I am going to give you an example. I am at work this morning and I am going to ask the first 20 people (I wouldn’t recommend less than that because it will be hard to create a visual with less) I see whether they prefer Coke, Pepsi or RC. You can choose any question you want but I would make it something people will answer quickly. You could call people, send out the question on social media, group text message (because we all know how much people love those- lol), email, etc. I am not really looking at the research, survey method itself I just want you to have practice creating a table with actual data and then creating a visual to represent it.

So, here is my data in a table. I created the table before hand and just marked as I went. Hint: Review page 207 in manual

Note: This table represents the survey results from 20 participants pop preferences.

Now I am not tech savvy, but I am going to use my word program to create a pie chart as I think that will be the best visual for my data. You do not have to use this option. You can use any program you want and any type of figure/graph/chart, etc. Chapter 7 shows many examples to give you some ideas. Remember the point is more to practice the APA and not the other aspects (though it can be kind of fun especially if APA has been stifling your creativity all term-lol).

I am going to do a really simple, quick figure. I hope you all challenge yourself a bit more than I did. Hint: Review 7.35 in manual. After inserting my data in my word pie chart this is what I get:

Now I need to format in APA. So, it would look like this:

Figure 1

Teacher Pop Preference at St. Louis Park High School

Note: This figure represents the teacher’s preference for Coke, Pepsi, or RC. This figure represents the breakdown out of 20 teachers surveyed in 2020.

Pop Preference Coke Pepsi RC 12 7 1
