for the pilot test of 10 subjects which comprised 4 females and 6 males is shown in
Table 5.6. Most respondents remained male and it is a mutual ailment on maritime
industry professionals who have been conquered by the male group. The participants
were easy to deal with as amongst the maritime industry located in Lumut, Perak.
5.3.7 The Reliability Test and the Cronbach’s Alpha
28 elements of the questionnaires have been examined and it indicated a Cronbach’s
alpha in the range from 0.864 to 0.939. The Cronbach’s alpha value was 0.806. This
Cronbach’s coefficient alpha displayed an internal uniform reliability of the study
questions that reliability coefficient is closer to 1.0. as shown in Tables 5.7 and 5.8.
5.3.8 Normality Test
A normality test was applied to determine whether the sample data has been drawn
from a normally distributed population by conducted the normality test using the
Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (KS test). This method is applied for the testing of the
distribution with the specified mean and variance at 0.000 as shown in Table 5.6. It
has indicated that the data qualifies for data normalization and it can be established
that the sample normality does not differ from the population.
