3.7 Data Collection Methods
The primary data will be collected through the use of survey questionnaire by drop and pick strategy to ensure high response rate. The use of questionnaire will be adopted because it ensured that data collection is standardized such that each respondent got the same question and in the same format. Questionnaires will also enable collection of original data from the sample of the population within a short time and at low cost for purposes of describing the entire population (Ogutu, 2012).
Auka et al. (2012) define validity as the extent to which the test-items measure what they purport to do and reliability as the consistence of a score from one occasion to the next. For this study, the validity and reliability was tested by use of pilot test and expert judgment of the research supervisor.
3.8 Research Procedures
The questionnaire will be pre-tested before the final distribution. Cooper and Schindler (2001) noted that this is usually done to detect any weaknesses in the research design. The pre- testing (pilot testing) will be used with the aim of refining and fine tuning the questionnaire so as to ensure that it was valid and reliable. The pilot will be done on five respondents from the study population who will then be excluded from the final study to eliminate bias.
The pilot will be done to check possible errors in the instrument. The questionnaire will then be self -administered in hard copy form to each of the respondents and picked up later after a day to increase the response rate.
3.9 Data Analysis Methods
Cooper and Schindlier (2000), described data analysis as the process of editing and reducing accumulated data to a manageable size, developing summaries, seeking for patterns and using statistical methods. The questionnaires wascoded before entering the data into Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SSPS) for the analysis of the information and data.
The data analysis will involve frequencies, means, analysis of variances and bivariate analysis in form of cross tabulation to explore the relationships between the various variables tested in the current study. The data will then presented in form of Tables and figures and regression analysis will be use for the test of hypothesis.
