Kruskal Wallis H test as non parametric method for testing was applied to establish significant difference and Spearman Rho Correlation to signify positive correlation. The result of the study revealed that a significant difference is not evident in the average responses of the respondents since the p-values are significantly greater than the alpha of .05. thus, failing to reject the null hypothesis.
