We analysed the information provided to us by Creative Crieff, particularly their 2020 survey. Our aim was to conduct up-to-date research that we could then present to Creative Crieff based on 'The Star Experience'.The survey was comprised of 21 questions, hosting a wide range of questions based on demographics, 'The Star Experience', and Crieff and the surrounding areas.Once we had filtered through the data, we had a total of 211 responses.The survey was presented mostly in a Likert scale format to enable a clear understanding of respondent attitudes, with a few questions also being open-ended.We collected the data using the survey platform JISC. Then exported the information to Excel to conduct its analysis using SPSS, a data analysis software program.

Analysis of Data

. 1. Gathered the 222 respondents from JISC- Initially our aim was 350, but after recognising the time constraints we had to reduce our desired response rate to 200.2. Cleansed the data using excel- With some respondents being below 18, or not inputting an age, we had to reduce our respondents to 211. 3. Converted the new data into SPSS - In order to gain descriptive frequencies and the mean, we used SPSS.

Cleansing the Data

Our results found our majority respondents were 18-24, and lived within Crieff, creating an ideal demographic for us to work with
