Questionnaire: running female

Postby nanderson08 » Thu Dec 26, 2013 10:31 am

Hello everyone,

I am looking for Brits and non-Brit females to answer a short e-questionnaire about their purchase intentions when buying sportswear for running. This is for my 4th year University dissertation. All responses would be greatly appreciated and the link is below

Thanks in advance of any responses

I don't fit the age range. I guess women in their 60's don't run or buy running gear so our opinion isn't that important :lol: :lol: :lol:

I did it! The oldest age group was 41+. Did she change that?

Hmmm...maybe I misread...I read that the criteria was "women ages 18-50...so I didn't go any further.

ETA: Nope...did not misread...criteria said..."all participants must be between 18-50.

it does say that... but then when it asks your age the top category is 41+.

I thought it was an odd survey. Seems to be trying to find out whether people buy for brand/style. But it doesn't really address comfort or quality except in a couple of questions, so it seems rather imbalanced--like you either buy for brand/style or you don't, but nothing in between (I buy name brands but not because of the name or image or endorsement--I buy them for quality and comfort over the long haul!).

Also (being in this business). The questions were laid out differently in some cases. Strongly agree was on the left in some cases and on the right in some cases.

I just answered the questions and ignored the eligibility, thinking it would kick me out at th age question.

It was an odd survey. Not very well-worded.
