• Make a list of the main findings
• Going through your lists, come up with • Positive aspects and • Concerns

Positive aspects of this survey:
• large enough sample, • online-so anonymous encouraging
people to answer truthfully, • clear definitions of an office worker
and a gamer.
![Page 7: Writing Frame for Critically Evaluating a Report](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070422/568165fa550346895dd92c7c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Concerns: • Selection method not stated
• may not be random• potential for a high non-response rate-(workers too
busy)• only young people surveyed but findings
extrapolated to “9 million office workers” which may include other age-groups
• some ambiguous response options• dubious claim made: “eating lunch at a desk could
double risk of DVT”• it is staying seated that increases the risk, not
place of lunch

• There should be no ambiguity when answering a survey. This ComRes survey clearly defines an “office worker” and “a gamer” but offers the ambiguous response options: very often, fairly often, not very often in questions 9 to 12.

• The margin of error is a statistic expressing the amount of random sampling error in a survey's results. The larger the margin of error, the less confidence one should have that the poll's reported results are close to the "true" figures; that is, the figures for the whole population. Margin of error occurs whenever a population is incompletely sampled.
