To ascertain the validity of the instrument, content validity was adopted. Also, the reliability co-efficient of the instrument was obtained through test-re-test method and the co-efficient of 0.65 was obtained. Four research hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Thus, Pearson Product Moment Correlation Statistics was used to test the research hypotheses at0.05 significance level.
