1.9 Research Methodology
I intend to use or employ
the quantitative method of data analysis. The primary source of data in
this research work will be through questionnaire being administered
randomly using the selected targeted groups in the local government
area. A total number of 60 questionnaires will be administered drawing 5
respondents from each of the thirteen wards in the local government.
Therefore, a systematic random sampling method of selection will be
adopted in this research. The systematic random sampling method involves
selecting every nth element or person from the target population. The
9th elements represent or mean the desire of respondent that should be
included in the sampling chosen in a sequential order hence the term
systematic.
The size and population of the wards in the local
government under study will be enough to generate the required number of
respondents that will correspond with the expectation of this work. The
targeted groups cut across age, sex, occupation, class and so on. As
such, a careful measure would be taken thereby ensuring a fair
representation of the entire population. In other words, in other to
ensure a reasonable representation of the entire population, a careful
measure is going to be picked of the targeted groups which cut across
sex, age, occupation class among others.
The presentation and
analysis of the data will be based on respondent socio–demographic
characteristic. The data will be presented in a tabular form showing the
frequency distribution of respondent based on occupation, sex, age,
educational attainment and mental status. Each of the distribution of
respondent will be presented in a single bar chart. The secondary data
will be source through the use of journals, periodicals, public books,
newspapers, internet, unpublished books among others.
