Elements and Principles of Data Analysis
The transparency principle of data analysis. Transparent analyses present an element or set of elements summarizing or visualizing data that are influential in explaining how the underlying data phenomena or data-generation process connects to any key output, results, or conclusions. While the totality of an analysis may be complex and involve a long sequence of steps, transparent analyses extract one or a few elements from the analysis that summarize or visualize key pieces of evidence in the data that explain the most “variation” or are most influential to understanding the key results or conclusion.
