Assuming there actually is a survey and people are actually being asked. 87% of the time it's people pulling numbers out of their ass.

- ineedasername 5y agoIf you want fake stats to support a specific viewpoint it's much less risk and very easy to simply phrase everything as a leading question directed towards certain answers. Like an uncentered Likert scale: 1) Perfect 2) Great 3) Very Good 4) Good 5) Okay 6) Neutral 7) Poor 5 out of 7 options are positive and only 1 is negative. As a bonus, the neutral & negative are listed last so you have to read through lesser positive options and the neutral before you get to the negative.
