popd[]=0.01
popr[]=0.01
These populations will then transform according to the following...

I am look at results of a likert scale and trying to establish statistical significance of the difference in percentage of 'top box' scores. Since the frequency distribution of the likert scale is non-normal I figured categorizing the top box is the best test for this.
