CHAPTER IV
PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS OF THE DATA
Introduction
Chapter IV presents the results of the research and relates
these results to the hypotheses. A detailed analysis of selected
biographical and personality traits of the twenty most successful
purchasing executives is compared to the same traits of the sixty
remaining participants. This comparison is made in order either to
prove or disprove Hypothesis I which states that there is a direct
relationship between achieved success in purchasing management and
certain identifiable characteristics.
In addition, a comparative analysis of the results achieved
in the "Finansim" game is presented in an attempt either to prove
or to disprove Hypothesis II which states that there are identifiable
personal characteristics that are directly related to decision-making
ability. This hypothesis is tested by dividing the game results into
quartiles and statistically comparing the biographical and personality
characteristics of the four groups.
