PROCE.URES USE. TO COLLECT .ATA

#s stated earlier$ Ewarton community has approimately %& households.Its was

calculated

That a sample of '&( was necessary in order to ensure accurate conclusion on the

level of prevalence pf single parent families in my community.

# total of )% questionnaire were prepared for distribution to the community members

I therefore decided to choose the household by a process of random selection which

will

*ater for the requirements mentioned above each slip of paper was fooled and placed

into a bo. The bo was closed and shake vigorously to ensure a through mitures of

the numbers. # total of )% slips were drawn from the bo one at a time while shaking

the bo in the process.

The )% household thus selected were then supplied with questionnaires I waited until

all questionnaire were completed and then went home to analy+e the data I collected .
