III.3 DATA PROCESSING AND INTERPRETATION
In interpreting the data found on field many methods have been
used, as classifying the classifying the answers to bring out the aim of
answering the research questions stated in the study, and more to differentiate
the answers given by respondent based on their understanding and their
opinion.
The classification of those answers given by various responder
through questionnaire and interviews have been used in determining the main and
common social cultural factors which can influence in HIV/AIDS transmission
among women. The quantitative analysis has helped in interpreting the data
found on field. And the pie charts (figures) are the main method to be used in
this research in order to differentiate the percentage of frequencies for the
given set of responses calculated and set of responses that had a highest
frequency (percentage) for easily analyse and interpreting the feelings.
III.4 LIMITATION OF THE RESEARCH
In collection of data, various problems were encountered:
> In terms of time taken to fill questionnaires there was a
problem because respondent took more time to answer them and were careless to
hand them in time. Data collection through questionnaires took longer time than
anticipated in.
> The responder kept the questionnaires for a long time and
some misplaced them and had to be given others.
> Time and resources were spent on translation of
questionnaires for those who do not understand English and those who do not
know to read and to write.
> The budget allocated to the research work was enough and
limited compared to the cost incurred.
> The time available for research was so limited.

conducting a research, we have meet with some problems like lack of knowledge
for the respondent, the respondent who refused to answer the questionnaire and
stigma for some respondent who do not want to say the reality of things.
