1.7.6 LIMITATIONS TO THE METHODOLOGY
It is
envisaged that in the course of this research study, a lot of
constraints and limitations might be encountered. Collection of
qualitative and quantitative data for this study may pose a major
constraint, as the researcher has to be on the field personally in all
the data collection processes.
Financial constraints will also pose a
major limitation during the investigation. The researcher would want to
broaden the scope of the study but for financial constraints. Time is
another limitation that will be encountered during the course of the
study. Balancing this research study with normal academic work is a
challenge to the researcher already.
In a whole, it is anticipated that all these limitations will not affect or mar the validity of outcomes of the research study.
