This study intends to carry out descriptive analyses. An important initial step in statistical analyses is a descriptive
analysis. It gives us an idea of the distribution of your data, helps you detect outliers and typos, and enables us to
identify associations among variables, thus making us ready to conduct further statistical analyses (Ahmad, 2015).

4.2.1 Normality test

Normality tests are performed in order to determine if the gathered data is normally distributed and if the collected
data is ranged in an appropriate way. The skewness and kurtosis are generally believed to be distributed if the variable's
value is between -1 and +1 (Peat and Bartoon, 2005).
