How to read these questions

single choice: Read the share choosing each option, then cross-tab by a segment question to see who differs.
matrix: Compare rows on the same column (for example, % agree) to find the weakest statement, then look at who rates it lowest.
multi choice: Percentages add up to more than 100% because people can pick several. Compare options by share of respondents, not share of picks.
