Questionnaire Analysis

In today's lesson, I collected back my first questionnaire and put all my results into a graph so I can easily see what my target audience like in a newspaper.

From this graph I can see that 8 of the people that answered my questionnaire were males, whilst there was one female, so I know that the majority of people who read newspapers are males.

This graph shows me that most of the people in my age range were 17 years old, whilst there was one 18 year old and one 19 year old person who answered my questionnaire.

For this question, I decided to ask how much people in my target audience would be willing to pay for my newspaper. The best response was £0.36+.

The information I can get from this graph shows me that, my target audience like reading newspapers on a weekly basis, instead of a daily or monthly, and this can help me decide on how often my newspaper should be produced.

I thought this would be an important question for me to ask my target audience, because I wanted to find out whether they would like to be able to send in their own stories or opinions to my newspaper. The majority of the people who answered my newspaper said they would like to be able to do this feature, so I know how to include a Contact Us box inside my newspaper.

I asked this question as it would be beneficial to me to find out how most people who read newspaper find out local news. This was a multiple choice question for my target audience as they could find out news in different ways. The two main options that my target audience chose were internet and TV. Newspapers was they least chose option as most main stories are published the next day but, T.V stories and internet pages can be published 24/7

. I decided to ask if most people read local or national newspapers, and if they did read local newspapers, I asked could they specify what those newspapers are actually called. 2 people said they read national newspapers over local newspapers, but 6 of the 7 people that said yes read the Liverpool Echo, and the other person said the Metro

For my last question I asked what interests people the most in a newspaper. This was another multiple choice question that I asked, and sport was the most popular topic people like to read, whilst news and entertainment were the second and third most popular topics. The least two popular topics were Gossip and Other. If anyone chose the other option I asked them to specify what that topic was, and they put Politics/Science.
