RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH DESIGN
THE SAMPLE
THE INSTRUMENT
The instrument used in this study is a survey
questionnaire. The researchers chose this process in order to
shorten the time and make it faster, less difficult, and not hard
to understand for the randomly chosen respondents, the
questionnaire will contain questions with eight (8) options
together with the respondents’ personal information.
The benefit of the instrument used is that
the researchers will get the data they needed. The advantage is
the respondents can answer it conveniently however the same
chosen respondents might answer responses that are not connected
to the anticipated reply.
The questionnaire will be used to know what
the impacts of COVID-19 on wages are if it is giving good or bad
impacts on the wages of the respondents. The respondents will be
the urban and rural workers who work during the time of COVID-19.
DATA COLLECTION PROCEDURE
After constructing the questionnaire and upon
the approval of the instructor and the respondents, the
researchers will send a letter together with the questionnaires
to the randomly selected workers, through their email account or
through their social media accounts. The data and information
will be retrieved after answering the questionnaires after thirty
minutes or one hour.
The questionnaire has consisted of the minor
information of the selected respondents such as their name,
gender, age, company name (optionally), years of working, and
work area. Together with the questions, the randomly selected
respondents must answer the survey questionnaire honestly.
DATA ANALYSIS PROCEDURE
The researchers chose and collected 20
respondents; 10 respondents in urban areas and 10 respondents in
rural areas with different jobs. For the respondent’s profile,
the respondents were asked about their names, age, gender, and
the company where they work (optionally), and how long they’re
working on the said company together with the eight (8) following
questions.
To determine the impacts of COVID-19 on wages
and how it affects the workers' performance, daily works, and who
are the most affected by this COVID-19, percentage and tally will
be used.
