What is the Standard Deviation?

The Standard Deviation is a statistical measurement to quantify the amount of variation within a set of data values. In the InnoSurey, a small or low Standard Deviation indicates that the respondents of the survey do not differ a lot. However, a big or high Standard Deviation shows that the data points are more wide spread from the mean, which symbolizes that the participants of the InnoSurvey do have quite different perceptions of the company.

What are Frequency Tables?

A Frequency Table is used when there is a lot amount of datapoints to illustrate the percentage of how frequent an answer has been giving to a certain question. The main percentage of one question is always 100% and the different answer-options are presented with the different partial percentage of the answer. This can be used to identify mis-aligments in the company to investigate further.

However, they do not show the mean, min or max values and should therefore only be used in large datasets.
