6.0 Data Analysis and Interpretation

6.1 To meet the first objective the researcher had considered the following hypotheses

To study relationship between demographic factors and brand choice the researcher has proceed

as follows.

1.1.1 Demographic factor: Gender

H0: Choice of Brand Nokia is independent of Gender of User.

H1: Choice of Brand Nokia is dependent of Gender of User.

6.3 Factors Influencing Purchase Decision

To satisfy the third objective, the researcher had made an attempt to find the impact of prominent

demographic variables on purchase and switching intensions of the users. To study the factors

which are significant for the purchase decision based on the demographic factors, the researcher

had used t test and ANOVA as the statistical tool to arrive at the desire result.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand choice while gender is considered.

The first table gives mean ratings given to factors by males and females. The second table

gives significance of difference.

From the above table p value for brand name is 0.007 which is significant at 5% LOS.

Since p <= 0.05 the difference between ratings of males and females is significant.

Therefore Brand name is significant factor for choosing a brand.

Similarly Reference, Good battery Life, Utility, User friendly, Dual SIM card and 3G

shows significance difference between ratings given by males and females. In each of the

above factor males have higher ratings than females except for reference.

Whereas Value for Price, Shopkeepers suggestions, Brand ambassador, Physical

appearance and operating system doesn’t affect the purchase decision of the respondents.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand choice while age is considered.

For age groups the test applied is Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The first table gives

mean ratings by different age groups. The second table gives significance. The last column

in second table (Sig.) is P-value. If P<= 0.05 the difference between age groups is

significant.

Value for Price, Good battery life, Brand ambassador, Physical appearance and 3G are

significant or in other words the respondents give importance to Value for Price, Good

battery life, Brand ambassador, Physical appearance and 3G while making purchasing

decision when AGE factor is considered.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand choice while Education is considered.

For Education groups the test applied is Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The first table

gives mean ratings by different education groups. The second table gives significance. The

last column in second table (Sig.) is P-value. If P<= 0.05 the difference between education

groups is significant.

Thus Brand name, Value for Price, Good battery life, Brand ambassador, Shopkeepers

suggestions, Utility, User friendly and 3G are significant for purchasing decision when

EDUCATION is considered as one of the demographic factors.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand switching while gender is considered. The first table gives mean ratings given to

factors by males and females. The second table gives significance of difference. The

significance is tested at 5% LOS. Thus from the second table the researcher came to a

conclusion that the significant factors which leads to brand switching are O/S, No extended

memory, No social net, No internet, No Wi-Fi & Bluetooth when gender is considered as

the demographic factor.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand switching while age is considered. For age groups the test applied is Analysis of

Variance (ANOVA). The first table gives mean ratings by different age groups. The second

table gives significance. The last column in second table (Sig.) is P-value. If P<= 0.05 the

difference between age groups is significant in brand switching. Since p= 0.046 < 0.05 for

Small Display, thus Small Display is significant for brand switching when age is considered

as demographic factor.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand switching while Occupation is considered. For occupation groups the test applied

is Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The first table gives mean ratings by different

Occupation groups. The second table gives significance. The last column in second table

(Sig.) is P-value. If P<= 0.05 the difference between occupation groups is significant in

brand switching. Since p value for No Dual Sims and no extended memory < 0.05 thus

researcher concludes that No Dual Sims and no extended memory are significant factors

for brand switching when occupation is considered.

The researcher has made an attempt to find the prominent factors which are responsible

for brand switching while Income is considered.

For income groups the test applied is Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The first table gives

mean ratings by different age groups. The second table gives significance. The last column

in second table (Sig.) is P-value. If P<= 0.05 the difference between income groups is

significant in brand switching.

Since p value for No Dual Sims and no extended memory < 0.05 thus the researcher

concludes that No Dual Sims and no extended memory are significant factors for brand

switching when Income is considered as demographic factors.

For Education groups the test applied is Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The first table

gives mean ratings by different age groups. The second table gives significance. The last

column in second table (Sig.) is P-value. If P<= 0.05 the difference between Education

groups is significant in brand switching or in other words income affects the switching

decision.

Since p value for No Internet and No WAP < 0.05 thus they are significant factors for

brand switching when Education is considered as demographic factor.
