This chapter presents the data gathered, the results of the statistical analysis done and

"Data analysis is the process of bringing order, structure and meaning to the mass of
collected data. It is a messy, ambiguous, time consuming, creative, and fascinating
process. It does not proceed in a linear fashion; it is not neat. Data analysis is a
search for answers about relationships among categories of data."- Marshall and
Rossman, 1990:111
