Abstract

This chapter contains a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the study. The model of research has been presented in the previous chapter, and the measurement variables have been given in this chapter, and data analysis of survey responses to validate and verify the model was conducted. Therefore, the primary purpose of this chapter is to offer a detailed analysis of the data collected from the questionnaire (Likert scale) surveys. The results from data refinement, analysis of multivariate, and testing of hypotheses have been presented.
