This case study formed the 4th and final part of the webinar DIY Market Research Dashboards - Building 4 in 40 minutes (webinar), originally presented on the 5th of December, 2017.

Overview

The study itself is from a survey which asked about which traits Americans prefer in a president. The most important component of the study is a MaxDiff experiment on these traits. A dashboard is constructed to show the results from the study, including the demographic makeup of the sample, political preferences, and the rankings of the traits as obtained through the MaxDiff analysis. In this case study you will learn about:

The basic workflow to setting up advanced analyses in Displayr
How to create master slides with backgrounds
How to set up and modify a range of visualizations
How to create and apply filters
How to update a Displayr document with new data

You can view the final dashboard here.

You can edit a copy of the final dashboard here.

Video

There are three distinct components to the last dashboard: setting up the Max Diff, creating the visualizations, and updating the document with new data. You can watch the whole process by starting at the first of the three videos below, or you can just watch the one you are most interested in.

Setting up the MaxDiff analysis

Creating the visualizations

Updating with new data

How to create the dashboard

Instructions for setting up this dashboard from scratch can be found in three separate articles. You don't need to complete the steps from all three. They are designed so that if you are only interested in one of the aspects you can just read the article for that aspect.

Advanced Analysis of Experimental Data illustrates the basic workflow of performing advanced analyses (in this case, MaxDiff) in Displayr.
Visualizations illustrates many of the different ways of creating visualizations in Displayr.
Updating Reporting illustrates how to update data files so that the entire report, including all analyses, automatically updates.
