To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same
reasons?
![Page 2: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Geographers and other scientists like to look for trends in data.
![Page 3: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
One of the easiest ways for people to spot trends is to graph your data.
![Page 4: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What this means is that you will have to organize your questionnaires in a
way that allows you to make categories.
![Page 5: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Once you have categories, you can compare each category on a graph.
![Page 6: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
For example, if you make a survey to find out how many people like
cookies, you may give a questionnaire that asks the question:
Do you like cookies?
![Page 7: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
If you ask 50 people, then you answers may look something like this:
30 people = yes
20 people = no
![Page 8: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
If you graph this, it may look like this: Number of people who like cookies
0
5
10
15
20
25
30
35
1
yes
no
Not very interesting yet right?
![Page 9: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
But what if we separate the people in our survey into categories to
compare with?
One easy way to separate into categories is by age.
![Page 10: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Once we make categories, we can then look for trends or interesting
details.
![Page 11: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Then our chart may look something like this:
Hmmm, now this is getting interesting…..

We can start to compare people from different ages and see some
trends.
![Page 13: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What trends can you start to see here?

So, to make our survey more interesting, we can divide the people
who answer our questions into categories.
![Page 15: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Maybe we can focus our question as:
To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?
We can also make a new question to try to answer.
![Page 16: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
If we do this, how can we put ‘people’ into categories?
Age, gender, economic status, Nationality etc……
![Page 17: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
We don’t want to have too many categories, because that will get too
complicated.
To keep it simple, we can choose just a few categories to represent.
![Page 18: To what extent do people move to Shanghai for the same reasons?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649dc55503460f94ab92ed/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Age
Gender
Nationality

What this means is that you will have to have room in your survey
to find out these details form people.
Some people may not want to tell you their age. Can you think of a
way around this?
