The population of the study was 226 and the sample size was found to be 144 using the Taro Yamen’s formula. The researcher used the non-probability sampling method for the sampling procedure. The questionnaire instrument used in the study was validated by way of showing it to the supervisor for both correction and inputs and a pilot study was conducted with the instrument. A test–retest approach was used to determine the reliability of the study instrument and it was found to be 77% reliable with the use of Spearman’s Product moment Correlation Coefficient, r. Data analysis was committed to descriptive statistics, regression analysis and correlation analysis technique. Descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions. Correlation and regression analysis were used to test the hypotheses.
