Step I: Study objective and research hypothesis
Objective III
To highlight the contributory factors to the spread
of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North
American University, Cotonou.
of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North
American University, Cotonou.
Research Hypothesis III
Ho: There are no significant contributory factors
to the spread of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of
Houdegbe North American University, Cotonou.
to the spread of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of
Houdegbe North American University, Cotonou.
Ha: There are significant contributory factors to the
spread of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North
American University, Cotonou.
spread of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North
American University, Cotonou.
STEP II: Choose alpha (α) and Degree of Freedom (Df)
Let alpha (α) = 0.05
Df
= (C – 1)(R – 1)
= (C – 1)(R – 1)
= (4 – 1)(4 – 1)
= 3 x 3 = 9
Df
= 9
= 9
Where R = Row, While C = Column
Therefore, α
= 0.05 at 9 df = 16.919
= 0.05 at 9 df = 16.919
STEP VI: Applying Decision Rule
Since X2
calculated = 134.9 ≥ X20.05 (table value) = 16.919
calculated = 134.9 ≥ X20.05 (table value) = 16.919
This implies that there are significant contributory factors to the
spread of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of Houdegbe
North American University, Cotonou.
spread of HIV/AIDS among Health Information Management students of Houdegbe
North American University, Cotonou.
