HA1-Task 2-Applying Research Techniques

Quantitative Research Results
Q1: What is your sex?


Q2: What is your age?



Q3: What category of gamer are you?

Q4: Are you in:

Q5: Where do you live?

Q6: Have you played GTA V?

Q7: Which console did you play it on?

Q8: GTA is a great game.


The research above shows the overall percentage in a pie chart of each answer that people have given me for my tick sheet. Also the results I got from the pie charts were not surprising as I mostly asked people that I knew and had an idea of what they would likely put. Furthermore for the layout I placed each question from the questionnaire and put the results in a pie graph underneath the answer.




The image above shows how I collected my information and converted it into pie charts.

When I gave my questionnaire sheets to different people, I got feedback that described what features they liked best about GTA 5 and what they could do to improve it. Some of the feedback I got, I have displayed above.
Some of the things I needed when giving out questionnaire sheets was to get an equal amount of males and females, but unfortunately I was unable to get enough females to give feedback. Also the overall feedback I got back, mentioned that everyone I gave the questionnaire to liked GTA 5. This wasn't surprising considering pretty much everyone I asked was a boy and liked to play video games. Furthermore it was not surprising that everyone I asked to do my questionnaire, lived in the north west of the UK considering I asked people in the region.
