1.8 Limitations of the Study
This
study is primarily limited by time and distance between the researcher
and respondents. The researcher had the obligated responsibility of
attending lectures and writing this project. Time was rather limited.
Insufficient
funding also posed difficulties in the course of this study as a
self-sponsored student without financial assistance from friends and
relatives.
The study was also limited by lack of current literature
in the polytechnic library. The researcher has to source vastly for
information with which this study was carried out.
Irrespective of
these limitations, the researcher did his best to overcome these
limiting factors, therefore, the reliability and authority of this
research should not be underserved by its potential users.
