III.            Hypothesis	1)      Gender of the respondents does not influence the perception towards____________ 2)      Age of the respondents does not influence the perception towards____________ 3)      Experience of the respondents does not influence the perception towards____________ 4)      Qualification of the respondents does not influence the perception towards____________ 5)      The business sector does not influence the study factor______________ 6)      The Profitability of the organization does not influence the study factor______________ 7)      The business period does not influence the study factor______________
IV.            Research Type, Process and design	Ø  Applied research or Basic research: Applied research: Is to solve a current problem faced by the manager in the work setting, demanding a timely solution. Basic research (fundamental, pure) is to generate a body of knowledge by trying to comprehend how certain problems that occur in organizations can be solved.  Ø  The research process  : 1 Observation  2 Data gathering  3 Problem definition  4 Theoretical framework (variables identified) 5 Hypotheses  6 Research design  7 Data collection, analysis, interpretation  8 Deduction  9 Report writing  10 Report presentation  11 Managerial decision making
V.            Research Design
1)      Purpose of study	1)      Descriptive study is to able to describe the characteristics of the variables of interest in a situation. 2)      Hypotheses testing: Is undertaken to explain the variance in the dependent variable or to predict organizational outcomes. 3)      Case studies
2)      Data Collection	Primary data and secondary data; Data collection methods used:  interview, Questionnaires
3)      Sampling method	Sample is a subset of the population.  Sample is the process of selecting a sufficient number of elements from the population.  Studying a sample rather the entire population is sometimes to lead to more reliable results, mostly because fatigue is reduced, resulting in fewer errors on collection data. (time, cost, human resources); Convenient sampling/Judgmental sampling/Area sampling/Cluster sampling
4)      Data analysis and interpretation	The data analysis involves three major steps, done in roughly this order: 1)      Cleaning and organizing the data for analysis (Data Preparation)  2)      Describing the data (Descriptive Statistics): provide simple summaries about the sample and the measures. Central Tendency & Dispersion; we use descriptive statistics simply to describe what's going on in our data. 3)      Testing Hypotheses and Models (Inferential Statistics):t-test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA), regression analysis, Correlation is a measure of the relation between two or more variables. We use inferential statistics to make judgments of the probability that an observed difference between groups. Thus, we use inferential statistics to make inferences from our data to more general conditions
