The following graphs illustrate the survey responses to Likert scale statements in four themes: independent licence, walking perceptions, experiences, neighbourhood and community ties, from children who regularly walked to school (n=200) and their guardians. Neutral and neutral adjacent responses are placed in the middle 0% axis, to better illustrate response ranges, improve readability and facilitate comparisons. Answer ranges were given a number from 1 to 5, which allowed to consider mean averages, finding possible relations between gender, age and accompaniment. Neutral percentages were divided into two when adding either negative or positive answer ranges.
