CHAPTER FOUR.

RESULT AND ANALYSIS

INTRODUCTION

This chapter contains the presentation, interpretation, and discussion of the findings obtained in the course of this study. The hypothesis earlier formulated in the chapter one of this work, to guide data collection and analysis found to be corresponding with certain items raised on the questionnaire administered will be tested in this chapter.

Research can be said to be an investigation due or conducted to search for facts or knowledge. Research activities also provide solution to problems. Conclusions are sometimes drawn from the researcher's findings/investigations whenever there is need to do so.

For this research work, fifty (50) copies of questionnaire were administered to the respondents. All copies were returned, however only 43 were found to be suitable for the research, resulting in an effective response rate of 86%, which the researcher considers significant enough to continue with the work.

The breakdown of the division and number of copies administered to each department will not be specifically stated here. Also, the respondents profile e.g sex, age, marital status, length of service will not be tabulated here. This is to keep the identity of the respondents as anonymous as possible.

The responses will be manually analysed using descriptive statistics, sample percentage and frequency. The problems which arose as a result of the merger which the respondents faced, as have been freely listed by them were subjected to content analysis. The results from the analysis will be shown in table 4.1 to 4.21 in this chapter.

The tally methods will be used in analysing the information obtained from the responses on the questionnaire. It (tally method) is being used because it is one of the simplest statistical means of analysing data and will be done case by case for all the questions in the questionnaire. The data collected will be analysed statistically by simple application of percentage for all the questions on the questionnaire.

The demographic data presented in the following tables:

DATA ANALYSIS :

From the above table (4.1), it can be seen that most of the respondents (81.5%) were of the opinion that the merger has affected them to a 'very great', 'great', and 'some extent'.

Only a few opined that it affected them to a 'little', and 'very little' extent. Hence, the majority opinion was that it affected them to a large extent.

These findings will be comprehensively discussed in the next chapter (chapter five) of this work, with regard to the research question本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
