HA7 Task 2 applying research techniques




Quantitative Results 





This is the survey we created on survey monkey. We created this as a group and then edited it to correct mistakes; or even change questions.Together, me and my group thought of the different questions we could ask on the survey. Considering the survey was based on quantitative, we decided to ask short simple questions. We also decided to have a drop down survey, meaning that the people taking the survey only had a variety of answers for each question e.g. "Have you ever played GTA V" and the answers the participator could give is either "yes" or "no" We believe that the drop down option will give us more accurate quantitative answers.

Questions we asked
1) what gender are you?
We asked this question because we firstly wanted to see which gender would get the largest vote e.g. our group believed that most people who take the survey would be male, and so to find the results this question was asked.
2)How old our you?
For this question, we decided to start the age from 16 because we knew that GTA V is rated 18, and so we aimed our target at an older audience and not a young audience. However, we also knew that people under 18 such as myself still play GTA V so we lowered the age to 16 so some people under the age can still give an answer.
3)race?
we asked this question as we wanted to see which type of people play it. Also we knew that different races play this game, and so to get more results, we needed to include a race question so we could see which races answered the most questions.
4)how often do you play games?
We needed to see how often people spent on games, so we could see the final overall result later on. As every one of our questions had a drop-down, this made this question easier and more simple to answer. From this we would not get many different results from this question.
5)have you played GTA V?
we asked this because this question was one of the main ones as, if the person didn't play GTA V, some of the questions further on would require them to have played GTA V; leading them question to not getting answered.
6)have you ever played any GTA title?
we decided to ask this question as we wanted to know if some people have never played any GTA. If the answer came back "no" we would know that some of their other answers would be much to rely on.
7)have you bought the game?
We were interested in asking this question as from asking around, we learnt many people had played the game but not actually bought it. We seen this as a good question to ask to see what answers we would get back.
8)What would you rate the game out of 10?
We wanted to see what different rating we would get back as we knew they were more likely to be a variety of ratings.
9)how long do you play GTA V for?
We asked this question as we wanted to see what the overall hour would be from people playing this game. We expected the hour to come back high, and so we asked this question to see whether our thoughts were right.
10)What region do you live in?
For this question we decided to base the regions around where we live. However we did give an "other" option so we could see what people did this survey from different countries e.c.t.







Qualitative Results 






1) Are you male or female?
We asked this so we could see what gender were answering these questions. We predicted that mostly males would participate in this survey.
2)Have you ever played GTA V?
We asked this as we wanted to know whether people had played GTA V. This way we could see which answers would be more reliable. e.g. If a person said that they had never played GTA V but still decided to take part in questions, his answers would not be accurate.
3)What did you think of the graphics in GTA V?
Our group had noticed that some people had some negative and positive actions towards the graphics in GTA V and so we decided to ask this question as we were sure it would get some good responses.
4) What elements of GTA V single player did you like?
We asked this question as we wanted to know what they liked about the single player in GTA.
5)Who is your Favorite character from GTA V out of Trevor Michael and Franklin; and why?
We wanted to find out what character would get the highest rating as the 3 main characters were all very different.
6)What improvements do you think GTA V online needs; and why?
From playing the game myself, there has been faults on GTA V online and so our group decided to ask this question.
7)On GTA V online, is there anything you think should be added; and why?
Rockstar (the creators of GTA )  have added many things such as DLC, and so our group thought it would be interesting to see what other people had to say.
