The respondent collected data from 20 people through a questionnaire. They analyzed the results and found that most respondents were female, between 15-18 years old, read Kerrang magazine, and associated the word "guitars" most with rock music. Blue was reported as the most popular color. Most were willing to pay £1-£1.50 for a music magazine and rated pictures highest on a scale of aspects in a magazine.
2. 1) Are you..................
Male Female

After tallying up my results for the following question; e.g. ‘Are
you male or female’; I have concluded that I have asked a total
0f 20 people, and that I have asked more woman then men; e.g. 5
men and 15 woman.

After tallying my results for the question ‘How old are you’; I
have concluded that I have asked most people my age to fill in
the questionnaires (15 – 18 year olds), and only a few of the
older generation. In order to improve my results I could of
equalised the same amount of questionnaires to the various age
groups.

Once a fortnight and Occasionally; and occurs only because
this when most of the people tend to buy the music
magazines.
5. 4) What music magazines, if any, do you read?

The conclusion I come to when looking at these results is
that most people tend to buy Kerrang Magazine then any
other. However, what I've come to conclude as well is
that majority of the same people that answered my
questionnaire, also buy other magazines as well as
Kerrang, and that’s why, when totalled, my results exceed
twenty.

The results show that ‘Bullet for my valentine’, with a total of 4, was
