WHAT IS CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH
a quantitative method of research
have 2 or more quantitative variables from the same group of subjec
trying to determine if there is a relationship between the 2 variable
8/10/2019 Correlational Research RM REPORT

e.g.
What is the relationship between:
1. Height and weight?
2. Work and Compensation?
3. Cigarettes smoked per day and health costs?
4. How close to the front you sit in class and your grade i
class?

ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
ADVANTAGE DISADVANTAGE
helps researchers to see the
relationship between two or more
things.
enable researchers to analyze the
relationships among a large number of
variables in a single study
provide information concerning the
degree of the relationship between the
variables being studied
cannot be used to demonstrate ca
and effect relationships
A correlational study serves only t
describe or predict behavior, not t
explain it.

The goal of the proposed study was to provide a b
understanding of :
The phenomenon of Gender Based Salary
Benefit inequality among construction manager

Data Analysis
Data Analysis
Microsoft Excel was used analyze the quantitati
survey data. Quantitative da
analysis in the form descriptive statistical analy
was employed that includedmeasure of central tendenci
(e.g., frequency, meamode,median, varianc
range, and standa
deviation).

DATA
Base salary mean scores were
higher for females as compared to
males.
Females have slightly higher
entry-level compensation than
males;
Males had a higher base increase
per year as compared to females.
Male respondents had highereducational background than
females.
Both males and females do have
the same minimum and maximum
time off.

DATA
Due to the nature of the data,
Spearmans rho correlation was
employed. Spearmans rho correlation analysis
revealed four significant associations
between seven variables (a) gender
and time-off variable; (b) base salary
and additional compensation;(c)
time-off and vehicle allowance; and
(d) tuition benefits and retirement
benefits. The significant associationsbetween compensation factors
related to gender-based salary
disparities in the construction
industry represented specific
compensation factors of the
construction management industry,
and serve as the basis for continued
research.

The study findings substanti
that gender-based salary a

have existed within the
construction industry. The cu
