  2. Introduction • I wanted to research this topic because I was interested to find out how many of the ks2 children played age inappropriate video games. • Also I wanted to know if there was a difference between what genre of games boys and girls played.

  3. Methodology • My research involved 64 ks2 children from years 3-6 and the age range of 7-11. • I gave out 64 questionnaires and received 50 back. • My questionnaire had both open and closed questions. • I analysed data from closed questions by counting how many times certain answers were chosen. • I analysed data from open ended questions by coding them and then counting the amount of times each code appeared.

  4. The data was kept anonymous because no names were written on the questionnaires. Ethical Issues All data was kept confidential. All participants had to sign a consent form.

  15. Conclusion • I feel my research went very well as I got a high number of questionnaires back. • I was surprised at the number of children that actually play age inappropriate video games. • However I wasn't surprised that more boys play age inappropriate games than girls. • I think my project was successful because I used different ages and genders therefore I received a wider range of responses.

  16. If I did my project again If I did my project again I would use the interview technique. I would also change some of the questions as I feel some children found some on my questionnaire confusing. I would also use more open questions because I’d get more detailed answers.
