Step I: Study objective and research hypothesis
Objective I
To examine the level of awareness of Health
Information Management students of Houdegbe North American University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS
Information Management students of Houdegbe North American University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS
Research
Hypothesis I
Hypothesis I
Ho: There is no significant level of awareness
among the students of Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North
American University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS.
among the students of Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North
American University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS.
Ha: There is significant level of awareness among
the students of Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North American
University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS.
the students of Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North American
University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS.
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
X2 Calculated
= 107.02
= 107.02
STEP VI: Applying Decision Rule
Since X2 calculated = 107.02 ≥ X20.05
(table value) = 16.919
(table value) = 16.919
This implies that there is significant level of awareness among the
students of Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North American
University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS.
students of Health Information Management students of Houdegbe North American
University, Cotonou on HIV/AIDS.
