Questionnaire results
I organized a questionnaire for my primary research, I did this type of quantitative research because I wanted to obtain some facts on videogamers as part of my research into the GAME website. I put my questionnaire online by using ‘survey monkey’ I then put the questionnaire on Facebook, Game website and the NMC website. The amount of people that filled my questionnaire in was 25 people which I thought was a sufficient amount of people to get a good general overview of results.
These are the results for ‘What is your age?’ The majority of people that participated in this questionnaire were aged ‘18 to 24’ and ‘25 to 34’ which got 34.62%. Also ‘35 to 44’ and ‘45 to 54’ got 11.54% and ‘65 to 74’ only got 7.69%, with the rest with 0%.
In this question I asked ‘are you male or female?’ The majority of people that participated in this questionnaire was Male with 57.69%. There was 42.31% of female that also took part in this questionnaire.
The question I asked for this one is ‘do you play video games?’ nearly everyone said yes to playing video games with a 88.89% and the rest saying no to playing which got a 11.11%.
The question is ‘if you purchase games online. Where do you buy your games?’ The majority of people answered ‘Amazon’, so 50% out of 25 people choose ‘Amazon’ just behind that 46.15% of the people picked other. With ‘Game’ having 23.08%, Play with 19.23& and Argos just having 3.85%.
The question was ‘if you purchase games in store. Where do you buy your games?’. All of the responses on this question had similar results. Majority of the people went with ‘supermarkets’ which got 40% and just behind that ‘Game’ got 36% and GameStation and other got 32%.
