RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH DESIGN:
A research design is purely & simple basic frame work or plan for a study the
guides the collection of data and analysis of the data.
Research designs are classified into three traditional categories: Exploratory, descriptive
and causal, the choice of the most appropriate design depends largely upon the objectives
of the research.
DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH:
Descriptive studies, as their name implies, are designed to describe something, for
example, the characteristics of users of a given product; the degree to which product use
varies with income, age or other characteristics: or the number who saw a specific
television commercial. A majority of marketing research studies are of this type.
SAMPLE DESIGN:
All sample designs fall in to one of two categories; probability or non-probability

sampling. In this research, non-probability sampling methods adopted, in which the
chances of select members from the population into the sample are unknown.
SAMPLING PLAN:
Data : Primary data

Researcher design : Survey
Researcher instrument: : Questionnaire
Method of contact : personal
SAMPLING METHOD:
Convenience sampling method of non – probability sampling is adopted in this

research. Convenience sample are samples drawn at the convenience of the interviewer.
Accordingly, the most convenient areas to a researcher in terms of time and effort turns
out to be “high traffic” areas such as a shopping malls or busy pedestrian intersections.
The selection of the place and consequently, prospective respondent is subject rather than
objective. Sample size – 50
DATA COLLECTION METHOD
There are four types of questionnaires design in which, we have adopted the
structured undisguised questionnaire, questions are presented in exactly the same words
in the order to all respondents.
In the typical structured undisguised questionnaires the questions as well as the

reasons are standardized. This is accomplished by employing fixed alternative, such a
questionnaire facilities easy administration, tabulated & analysis. Open & closed ended
questionnaire methods were used in the project, care must be taken to ensures that is for
possible, it should not contain any room of misinterpretations.
STATISTICAL TOOLS
 Percentage
 Chi square analysis
 Weighted average
There are briefly explained, in following
PERCENTAGE
Percentage refers to special kind of ratio percentage are used in marketing

comparison between two more series of data. Percentage are used to describe
relationship. Since the percentage reduce everything to a common base & these by allow
meaningful comparison to be made.
CHI SQUARE TEST

The quality χ 2
described the magnitude of discrepancy between theory
observation (ie) with the help of χ 2
test use are in a position to know whether a given
discrepancy between theory of observation may be attitude to chance (or) whether it
results in adequacy of the theory to fix observed fact.
The quantity χ 2 is defined as
χ 2
= Σ (O-E) 2/E
Where,
O – Observed frequency
E – Expected frequency
WEIGHTED AVERAGE
If something is distribution is more important than order, then their point must be
born in mind, in order that average completed is representatives of the distribution. In
such case proper weight age is to be given to various items the weight attached to each
item being professional to the importance of the item to be I the distribution.
