Questionnaire

Here is the link to my QUESTIONNAIRE  this is to help me do my research for music magazines Thank you for helping me in my research.

Qualitative and Quantitative

Qualitative Research
Research that is qualitative is a lot more open ended questions that would require a more extensive answer rather than a simple yes or no. this type of research is used to gain a better understanding of peoples personal views and opinions on the chosen subject. this can be done through telephone surveys, interviews or focus groups.

Quantitative Research

These are simple questions that only require one word or simple sentence answers, usually in the yes/no format. This method is more commonly used to put into a graph or tally chart and can be easily displayed. These questions are also a lot less time intensive so are used more than qualitative when out on streets, for ease. this can be done through questionnaires 

Primary Data & Secondary Data 

Primary data is data that you have collected and you are not getting it from an external source, for example a questionaire that you create and send out. Secondary data is gathered from an external source such as other magazines or a website, you didn't gather the data first hand.
