ensure that all homophobic language and actions are challenged and eliminated. Although, this research project did not analyse the data collected from the questionnaires, it can be argued that the small sample size (one student teacher) has significant limitations on the results.

If a variable generate a VIF (Variance Inflation Factors) value above 10.0, the model might have a collinearity problem and attempts to correct the…

sampling is easy to apply as well as accurate in cases of large population under study, as was the case with music therapy. Overall, the selected sample represents 17 percent of entire population of study in the research conducted. However, the sample size is below 43%, which is the ideal percentage at 95% confidence interval. Therefore, it may lead to error emanating from small sample…
