Hi Wendy,
 
Have you looked at the on-going research done by  Rolf Molich, of DialogDesign
in Denmark? He has written quite a bit on presentation of results and done
pragmatic research  on running usability studies. These are called the CUE
studies:
 
 http://www.dialogdesign.dk/cue.html
 
One of the big points he has proven, is that there is no "magic number" - the
more studies run, the more participants included, the more unique and novel
findings. He has also shown that many, many practitioners, whether
consultants, students or in-house, write terrible reports and design terrible
tests - with tips on how to improve. Examples of good and bad result
presentation.

Hi! I'm doing a session at UPA in June on presenting usability findings.  I
wanted to use actual examples of good and bad presentations that we could use
to discuss elements of presentations that build or degrade credibility in the
audience members (usually development teams or executives). Have you had any
particularly effective or ineffective presentation experiences? Do you have
anything that you would be willing to share?

Thanks,

Wendy
