CHAPTER FOUR
PRESENTATION ANALYSIS INTERPRETATION OF DATA
4.1 Introduction
Efforts will be made at this stage to present, analyze and interpret
the data collected during the field survey. This presentation will
be based on the responses from the completed questionnaires.
The result of this exercise will be summarized in tabular forms for
easy references and analysis. It will also show answers to
questions relating to the research questions for this research
study. The researcher employed simple percentage in the
analysis.
DATA ANALYSIS
The data collected from the respondents were analyzed in tabular
form with simple percentage for easy understanding.
A total of 133(one hundred and thirty three) questionnaires were
distributed and 133 questionnaires were returned.
Question 1
Gender distribution of the respondents.
TABLE I
Gender distribution of the respondents
Response Frequency Percent Valid Percent Cumulative Percent
Valid Male 77 57.9 57.9 57.9
Female 56 42.1 42.1 100.0
Total 133 100.0 100.0
From the above table it shows that 57.9% of the respondents
were male while 42.1% of the respondents were female.
Question 2
The positions held by respondents
TABLE II
The positions held by respondents
Response Frequency Percent Valid Percent Cumulative Percent
Valid Civil servants 37 27.8 27.8 27.8
Married men 50 37.6 37.6 65.4
Youths 23 17.3 17.3 82.7
Students 23 17.3 17.3 100.0
Total 133 100.0 100.0
The above tables shown that 37 respondents which
represents27.8% of the respondents are civil servants 50
respondents which represents 37.6 % are married men 23
respondents which represents 17.3% of the respondents are
youths, while 23 respondents which represent 17.3% of the
respondents are students
TEST OF HYPOTHESES

Response Observed N Expected N Residual
Agreed 40 33.3 6.8
strongly agreed 50 33.3 16.8
Disagreed 26 33.3 -7.3
strongly disagreed 17 33.3 -16.3
Total 133
Test Statistics
there is impact of computer in rural area
Chi-Square 19.331a
Df 3
Asymp. Sig. .000
a. 0 cells (0.0%) have expected frequencies less than 5. The minimum expected cell frequency is 33.3.
Decision rule:
There researcher therefore reject the null hypothesis that state
that there is no impact of computer in rural area as the calculated
value of 19.331 is greater than the critical value of 7.82
Therefore the alternate hypothesis is accepted that there is
impact of computer in rural area
TEST OF HYPOTHESIS TWO
There is relationship between computer and the mindset of rural
communities

there is relationship between computer and the mindset of rural communities .
Response Observed N Expected N Residual
Yes 73 44.3 28.7
No 33 44.3 -11.3
Undecided 27 44.3 -17.3
Total 133
Test Statistics
there is relationship between computer and the mindset of rural
communities .
Chi-Square 28.211a
Df 2
Asymp. Sig. .000
a. 0 cells (0.0%) have expected frequencies less than 5. The minimum expected cell frequency is 44.3.
Decision rule:
There researcher therefore reject the null hypothesis that state
there is no relationship between computer and the mindset of
rural communities as the calculated value of 28.211 is greater
than the critical value of 5.99
Therefore the alternate hypothesis is accepted that state there is
relationship between computer and the mindset of rural
communities
