Once your statistical analyses are complete, you will need to summarize the data and results for
presentation to your readers. Data summaries may take one of 3 forms: text, Tables and Figures.
Text: contrary to what you may have heard, not all analyses or results warrant a Table or
Figure. Some simple results are best stated in a single sentence, with data summarized
parenthetically:
“Seed production was higher for plants in the full-sun treatment (52.3 +/-6.8 seeds)
than for those receiving filtered light (14.7 ± 3.2 seeds, t=11.8, df=55, p0.001.)”
Tables: Tables present lists of numbers or text in columns, each column having a title or label.
Do not use a table when you wish to show a trend or a pattern of relationship between sets of
values - these are better presented in a Figure. For instance, if you needed to present
population sizes and sex ratios for your study organism at a series of sites, and you planned to
focus on the differences among individual sites
