Begin your analysis with descriptive statistics, an expected and beneficial approach. If age is given in years, you can report measures of central tendency (mean, mode, median) and measures of variability (range and SD). You could analyze other types of data, such as the number of siblings, pets, hours at work, hours of school, etc., in the same way. With nominal variables such as race or gender, you can report the percentages of respondents with a particular characteristic; however, the mean of nominal level data is meaningless. For example, if your data is coded as 1 for male, 2 for female, 3 for non-binary, and 4 for other, you cannot add the number of ones and twos to obtain a mean. The number stands for the category. You can, however, say you surveyed X number of males (x%), X number of females (x%), X number of non-binary (x%), and X number of other (x%). Be sure to include an APA formatted table in your descriptive data. write paragraphs
