Interpreting Data

Most scientific STEM articles contain some sort of data: quantitative and qualitative.

When interpreting data, keep these questions in mind:

• Is there a trend in the data?
• Is there a key, legend, or other descriptions available? If yes, what do they say about the data?
• Why is the data presented in the format it is? Could the data be presented in a more effective manner?
• What conclusions can be made from the data?

Read this detailed guide to learn about types of data and ways to interpret them.
