Questionnaire Analysis

I created this questionnaire to collect results on what would be the best way to produce this magazine. I wanted various opinions on what colours to use and what articles to include in my magazine. I received back a lot of different answers which helped me to then tally up my results and see which options were top. Here are my results on my questionnaire. 65% of females at the college answered this questionnaire and 35% of males at the college answered this questionnaire.

One of the questions which I asked was what colours would appeal to you on a magazine. The results I received were very appropriate and from the final colours which has been chosen I can see that the magazine will look professional and well presented. The top 3 colours chosen were Blue, black and white and the extra colours where green, red and yellow.

I asked this question because I wanted to see how much people were willing to pay for a magazine from the college. 85% of people were willing to pay 50p or nothing towards the magazine. A few were willing to pay more but the majority of people wanted to pay nothing or pay 50p. This is an acceptable price and is affordable to most people.       

70% of people wanted the magazine to be published monthly or every half term.
50% wanted the magazine to be informal and 40% wanted the magazine to be mixed, both informal and formal. This means there would be serious articles but mostly informal text to suit the target audience.

After tallying up the results for types of articles that would be included in this magazine we came to a final decision. The top 2 highest were music and college trips and the extras were sport, TV and film, fashion and free gifts.

40% of the students at the college wanted a student as the front cover of the magazine. 30% wanted a celebrity and 30% wanted nature. This is a close result and therefore in each issue there will be a different front cover.

100% of students wanted a jobs page. This suggests that most first years and some second years are looking for a job in the local area. This page would be very helpful to a lot of people and therefore must be included in this magazine.
