Pearson Chi-Square was run along with the crosstabulaltions in the Statistical Package for the Social
Sciences (SPSS). Chi-square is a statistic that is used to determine whether the degree of association
between two variables is statistically significant. It does not measure the strength of the relationship.
There is a statistically significant relationship between frequency of communication upwards with
supervisors, deans etc. and the personnel type. (P = .000)
Table 3: Communication upward by personnel Status (P = . 000)
Employee Status Never Sometimes Frequently
Full-Time Employee (N = 485) 23.1%
59.4% 17.5%
Part-Time Employee (N = 142) 50.1% 43.0% 7.0%
One additional crosstab was statistically significant that was whether or not the employee is full-time or
part time. As is indicated in Table 3 above, 50% of part time employees reported that they never
communicate with their supervisors, this compared to only 23% of full-time employees who do the
same.
Q3. Do you feel that the comments or suggestions you made regarding your work climate at CSN were
adequately addressed by your supervisor, department chair etc. that you provided the information
to?
