4.4 Chi Square Tests Results with respect to sex 
In order to check whether there is statistically significant difference with respect to 
sex of participants and all five-point Likert scale questions, Chi Square test was 
primarily done to ascertain if there are marked significant differences in respondents 
attitudes towards using nonverbal cues, verbal cues and medio communication. 
Results shows that there is a statistical significant difference at the level p < 0.05 
with respect to seven items in the survey. 
With respect to Turkish Cypriots are racist; chi-Square test result was found at p 
=.034 to indicate that there is statistically significant difference at when p ≤ 0.05 
level.
