Customized Questions
Quantitative Questions
Asking these questions made it possible to find out answers that were generic and closed, using this kind of questioning was incredibly useful as it became possible to make statistical results from the data we'd analysed and make judgements based on them.
When I had my questions planned out from them initially being ideas, I put them onto Surveymonkey to make them more professional and finalized, putting them on there also made it simpler to create visual results in forms of graphs etc.
Though these questions are primarily closed questions there's the option to have input on a more personal level with the option of a text box.
With our questions we needed to vary what we were asking, rather than asking for worded answers from a choice we gave the person being questioned the option to choose a numerical value to answer their question.
Using these questions was useful as with the results that were to be generated I could use surveymonkey to create bar charts and graphs to make the analysis of results simpler to read and use to be published online.
Once I'd exhausted my usage of closed questions, I begun asking qualitative questions which would have the person answering the questionnare giving a detailed answer, showing their opinion by ending the question "Why?" this gave our answers more depth, more what we want to know from consumers.
How do these questions show us a target?
With the closed questions it's possible to pin-point what the target audience is by asking things like their age as knowing this can be applied when it comes around to the creation of games and what it is they should be continuing with as they target their specific audience.
When it came to asking open questions, asking a direct question about GTA V itself shows if players first of all know of it or if they agree with the way it's been created with such a large budget, focusing on whether they think it was worth that budget.
Games Survey drafts etc
With the first draft, with random ideas being thrown in and adapting on it to figure out what kind of questions and phrasing of questions would return the most results.
After figuring the questions that'd work and return the most amount of answers, we used the Site "SurveyMonkey" in order to make a more professional, more interactive survey for people online to answer for me, returning Quantitative research, able to produce results requiring numbers.
