Analysing My Questionnaire

Francesca Emmingham

Asking the audience if they are male or female gives me an idea of what proportion of each are answering my questions and what audience of each I would be basing my magazine on, if I know that the proportion of my questions have been answered by a certain gender then it may be bias to what the magazine would preferably include.

From looking at these results from my question on age I can see that 66.7% of the people that took my questionnaire are 17 or younger so would have to think about this when I produce the magazine as a target audience for the issue.

66.7% of the people answering my questionnaire have bought a music magazine in the past so I would take this into consideration when looking at my results as they must be accurate if they are from a knowledgeable source.

There are a wide range of results here to show how regularly the people who have said they buy music magazines buy them. The majority of people purchase their magazines either monthly or yearly so I would have to think about this when deciding how often to publish the issue that I will be producing.

I asked the people of my questionnaire what their favourite colour was to get an idea of the colour scheme that I should have for my issue and cover etc. With these results I can make the magazine more desirable to my target audience by using the most popular colours.

Asking my audience what kind of clothing they wear could influence how I dress my model on the cover, as most of my answers indicate that they are quite indie which suits my magazines genre.

Including what people would want to get out of the magazine could give me a way to attract more people to buy the issue by including these things within my issue.

Looking at the way my magazine would be set out is a key influence. There are spread results between equal amounts of both and more pictures then text so I need to think about this when producing my double page spreads and different stories within the issue.
