Is the period correct at the end of this sentence? While business alignment is cited as a critical challenge, the most commonly cited learning measures are on individual performance, engagement and satisfaction (Figure 3.)

@PUNKEY,
Unlike the sample, you used a period after the word satisfaction. I question whether you are actually using (Figure 3).

@roger,
To what might Figure 3 refer to?

@roger,
I recant.

Roger's application is seen in the many instruction booklets I have saved over the years.

Put the . after the (Figure 3).

Another way is to simply add, " . . . . as seen in Figure 3."

Please let me know which sentance is punctuated correctly and why. If you could also provide your background in the English language that would help too.
