4.5 ANOVA TEST Results for Religion 
The study “Interpersonal communication strategies Nigerian students in EMU devise 
to cope in the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus sought to explore whether it leads to 
statistically significant difference among Nigerian students. One of the assumptions 
of the study was that Muslim girls are mostly introverts and they develop shy 
personality when facing strangers so coping with language barrier might be a bigger 
problem to them unlike girls with other faith. In order to test this, one way ANOVA 
was employed to explore if there is statistically significant difference among 
members of different religion.
