The document summarizes the results of a survey conducted with 5 girls about their preferences for a country pop magazine. Most respondents preferred a single artist over a band, a mixed style magazine with both relaxed and upbeat elements, a color scheme including white, green, yellow and blue, and an interview format for the main article. They also indicated a preference for a female artist, more images than text, and a layout with a photo on the left and additional photos and text on the right for the double page spread.
