| Tiivistelmä: | Triangles provide a valuable means of diagrammatically summarizing and understanding data upon triads. Various properties of the triangular representation of data are discussed. Using this means of data presentation for parliamentary elections, it is demonstrated that an analysis based on the use of transition matrices can be misleading, especially when based upon what is referred to as a proportional loss model. A triangular presentation of voting data suggests an alternative analysis, namely, a model of uniform change. Finally, some of the consequent implications for the marketing strategy of individual political parties are discussed. |
