Thesis Data Snapshot
The primary reason my tests did not render any positive results is because of my small
sample size. The goal was 300-350 students, only 171 students took the survey. This is a snap
shot of the variables I was using. Keep in mind that the frequencies are the number of instances
the variable occurred within my sample; the percentage is the number of occurrences of a
variable in relation to a 100 point scale. I have three variables paired together. The percentages
within each pair add up to 100 percent; the frequencies do not. Please not that there are cases
of students not answering all of the questions. This will cause the frequencies to not add up to
171; these were taken out before the data analysis.
