Content Validity
Test of validity for the attitude statements was done using content validation
ratio (CVR) (Lawshe, 1975):
CVR= (ne - N/2) / (N/2)
Where: ne = Number of Panelists designating an item as essential
N= Total number of Panelists participating in a validity pretest
Reliability:- Measure of Internal Consistency of items in the scale. Procedure
suggested by Biggs and Cheek (1986) was used

Conclusion and Recommendation
Conclusion
Farmers in the study area, generally have some awareness of fish and
aquaculture but not sufficient
There is a greater disparity in the number of farmers who have low and
high level of awareness in context. This may be attributed to poor farmer to
farmer linkage in relation to fish/aquaculture or nature of the technology
itself .
