frame allocated to the study does not enhance wider coverage as the
researcher has to combine other academic activities and examinations
with the study.
c) Finance: the finance budgeted for the study was a
major constraint to the scope of the study, as the researcher has
limited resources at his disposal to combine both research work and
other academic engagement.
