The document describes a quantitative study conducted to determine the most preferred hair shampoo brand among different age groups. A survey was administered using non-probabilistic convenience sampling of 43 respondents. The study found that Head & Shoulders was the most preferred brand overall. A chi-square test showed a significant relationship between shampoo brand and age of respondents. Additional statistical tests like t-tests and ANOVA were used to analyze relationships between variables like gender, effectiveness, smell, and other attributes. Correlation analysis found no significant relationship between gender and effectiveness rating of the shampoo.
