ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on the analysis of the questionnaire data that was collected and described in the previous chapter. The data analysis process outlined in the preceding chapter (Figure 6.1) is followed with varying detail, beginning with a brief account of selected bivariate relationships that exist between the independent and dependent variables within the data set. The questionnaire data are then subjected to a series of multiple regression tests to elucidate the efficacy of each of the independent variables upon the dependent variables. Thus the sequence from data description to high-level multivariate analysis is completed. The chapter ends with a summary of the major empirical findings of the research example.
