Due to wide spread internet access by shoppers and e - commerce widely usage by traders, online shopping is rapidly growing in recent years. Students have been the majority online shoppers so this study finds out the attitude of students towards online shopping. This paper attempted to find out the impact of factors like easy payment, wide variety of products, educational qualification on online shopping . The study was undertaken among the students of Ludhiana. The results of the study is that educational qualification of the respondents and factors influencing online shopping are independent.

Online shopping is a new dimension of trade that emerged as a result of the overbearing usefulness of the internet as an information dissemination platform. Its remarkable growth has attracted numerous comments of researchers. This is evidenced by the number of publications on this theme in the recent time. Nevertheless, while the behaviour of online shoppers has dominated in the literature, little attention has been paid to their level of satisfaction and general experience in shopping online. Online shopping is actually an offshoot of e-commerce whereby consumers directly buy goods or services from a seller in real-time, without an intermediary service, over the internet. Online shopping from the shoppers perspective has been defined as the process consumers go through to purchase products or services over the internet (Monsuwe, Dellaert

My first reaction to the Seven Habits Profile results was speechless. When I start to think what it takes to become an effective leader versus manager I start by evaluating the traits, skills, emotion intelligence and among other attributes of the personality. The next process of my thinking is self-evaluating myself to see if I possess those elements. The video was an eye opening revelation considering what I consider an effective leader aligns with The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. The seven habits of the video are with the first step respectively: 1) be proactive, 2) begin with the end in mind, 3) put first things first, 4) think win-win, 5) seek first to understand, then to be understood, 6) synergize, and 7) sharpen the saw (Covey, 1990). By evaluating my chosen leadership theory: trait, along with the seven habits I gained a better scope of an effective leader. The overall results demonstrated that I was aligned with the Seven Habits principles ranging from very good to outstanding.

The initial item pool consisted of 140 items on a five point likert scale. Hinkin (1998) suggests that the statements of the items should be as simple and short as possible, something that Glick and Fiske (1996) did seem to keep in mind. Double-barreled and leading questions / statements also seemed to be avoided for the most part. Hinkin also

better feel for people's reactions and feelings better than the other two experiments. My intentions for partaking in the creation of a survey is due to me wanting to discuss the controversy problems gaining other people's opinions on the topic. I wanted to witness how many individuals were more on my side or against my reasonings on why I believe ‘Being Mary Jane’ is more motivational for the black woman than degrading. My survey results retrieved me to have a better standing in my argument regardless if it is for or against Mary Jane. The results of my survey were outstanding, I had twenty three people participate.

Pulling objective data through the use of Likert-style answers on each of the two questionnaires used, this author will use correlations to consider a connection between the two variables. Measurements will present descriptive statistics and form a positive probability to the

6) What does “Begin with the End in Mind” mean? Use examples from this week’s reading to explain your answer.

Considering the previous habits I have examined, all the reflections I have on recent events are related to the seven habits and my continued personal and professional development. This proves the textbook is very helpful and useful, because it covers every aspects of my life. However, the most important habit I would consider as Habit Four: think win/win. Because win/win is the fundamental of a long term success between two parties.

My life has begun to shift since the beginning of the MOD. I have come to realization that everyone has problems but it's your mentality, faith, and determination that gets you through them.With that being said, all I want is positivity in my future and I know that in order to do that changes had to be made.With the help of this course and covey's 7 habits I'm able to look at my life from a different perspective.

The participants were obtained through volunteers from a classroom. There were 26 participants in total, with 8 males, 17 females, and 1 omission. Demographics that were recorded included age, sex, ethnic background, and social economic status. Participants were instructed to avoid adding any extra informative identification to protect their confidentiality as well as informed about their right to withdraw from the study. Participants were then told that the completion of the study will act as giving consent to participate. Upon completion, participants were given a debriefing that included an explanation of the nature of the study along with contact information whether they had any more questions.

For example, in the study ' 'an initial pilot procedure was conducted using 12 female year 7 pupils ' ' (Elliott & Hoyle, 2014, pg 6). This increases reliability, validity and gains some feedback from the respondents based on whether the questionnaire can be easily understood (Cohen,. et al, 2011). In contrast, to interviews this can be difficult to achieve because the researcher asks a slightly different question to each participant according to the flow of discussion and compared to questionnaires, interviews are time-consuming to carry out a trial (Cohen,. et al, 2011). Another benefit is that the researcher can collect a large amount of data in a short amount of time. The evidence is in the article where the researcher hands the questionnaires to the teacher so he can give it to the students, and explains how to administer the questionnaire (Elliot & Hoyle, 2014). This shows the researcher saves time. Compared to interviews, questionnaires are easy to analyze and results can be generalize to get an overview of why girls do not want to participate in physical Education (Elliott & Hoyle, 2014). However, generalization is difficult in interviews because different people have different opinions.

The Likert-scale will consist of eight questions with six choices and no neutral response, in order to minimize social desirability, the questions listed are originated from the social dominance orientation scale. To avoid skewed data, the questions 1, 3, 4, and 6 will be scored based on their answers, while questions 2, 5, 7, and 8 will be scored reversibly to control response bias.

More online Australians intend to purchase event tickets and non-downloadable videos/DVDs/games than any other in the region. And one-fifth of online Indian shoppers plan to buy non-downloadable music.

Likert survey scale was invented by Rensis Likert, who was first to apply this approach in surveys to check attitudes. The main advantage of his method is that it requires less time to develop and is easier to adopt than the previously used survey methods. Moreover, the Linkert’s approach does not require the use of negative wording points, which is why Linkert scale survey has been used so much.

Open-ended questions allow for a greater variety of responses from participants but are difficult to analyze statistically because the data must be coded or reduced in some manner. Closed-ended questions are easy to analyze statistically, but they seriously limit the responses that participants can give. Many researchers prefer to use a Likert-type scale because it’s very easy to analyze statistically. (Jackson, 2009, p. 89)
