Methods

We have done our data collection as follows:
  • Ensured that the measuring tapes used are all of the same length, size and type.




  • Ensured that we have recording sheet and 30 copies of consent forms. 
  • We set up our station in the library.
  • One measuring tape was taped onto the floor for foot measurement. We also ensured that one more was on table for measurement of forearm.
  • We then invited students in the library to participate in our study.
  • Before participating in the measurement taking, we ensured that they acknowledged and signed the consent form.


  • One group member measured the foot length for 2 attempts to ensure accuracy, another measured the forearm for 2 attempts as well. 2 other students then recorded down the measurements whereas the other 2 took pictures of the procedure. This was done to ensure that measurements taken were accurate and valid.


One of our team members recording the measurements of the respondents.

  • To ensure cleanliness, we did hand rub with sanitizer to clean our hands after every measurement was taken.


  • After collecting 30 results, we then used SPSS to key in and analyze our data.
