are expected in much social research fieldworks. The author argued that studies which adopt only one method are more vulnerable to errors linked to that particular method than studies that use multiple methods in which different types of data provide cross data validity checks.

3.5.1: Organisational Interoperability Factors’ Scale

Organisational Interoperability factors‘ scale covered all the independent interoperability variables within this study: governance, standard operating procedure, technology, training and usage of interoperable communication with 81 questionnaire items. The Organisational Interoperability factors‘ scale was adaptedfrom ―Performance measurement and Interoperability‖ (Krauss, 2007). The Organisational Interoperability factors‘ scale was

subjected to face and content validity, while test retest pilot study was carried out using media personnel in Premier FM Ibadan, and Channels TV Lagos, not part of the selected media stations for research but have the same attributes. The result was subjected to Cronbach alpha test with reliability coefficient of 0.97

3.5.2: Media EffectivenessFactors’ Scale

The media effectiveness factors‘ scale is a set of self-structured questionnaire. This deals with audience perception on the effectiveness of broadcast media organisational interoperability in communal conflict management. It has 51 questionnaire items structured on a four point Likertrating scale, 4= strongly agree, 3=agree, 2=disagree and 1=strongly disagree. The questionnaire was subjected to face and content validity, while test retest pilot study was carried out using adult inhabitants of Ibadan North, not part of the selected local

92

governments for the research but have the same attributes in determining its level of reliability; it yielded a coefficient of 0.99

3.5.3Media Personnel and Communal Conflict Management checklist

Media personnel and conflict management checklist has 11-item awareness level scale that was developed to measure the awareness level of media personnel on communal conflicts in their communities, and the interoperability level of the stations for conflict management considering the different tiers of broadcast stations. The media personnel were able to indicate their awareness level of communal conflict and the level of interoperability their media station share with other media houses, and see where to work on in terms of information sharing to have an impact during communal crisis.

3.5.4 Audience and Conflict Management Checklist

Audience and conflict management checklist has 22-item awareness and prevalence level scale that was developed to measure the awareness level of adult inhabitants of the selected local governments on prevalence of communal conflict in their communities, and also measure their preference level for media stations they watch and listen to during communal conflict situations. The audience were able to know their level of awareness and see how they can work on their listenership and viewership habits to be aware of what is going on in their environments particularly during conflict situations.

3.5.5In-depth Interviews

The qualitative method of In-depth interview (IDI) was used to complement the media personnel questionnaires to elicit more crucial information that may not be captured by the

93

survey technique through mutual interaction of the researcher with the media respondents comprising of news editors, field reporters, programme editors and programme producers.

The convenience sampling technique was adopted with a total of 12 IDI sessions conducted with one key respondent from each of the 12 media stations selected for the study. The IDI sessions were conducted with the aid of discussion guide and tape recorder to store up responses apart from note taking.

3.5.6Focus Group Discussions

The qualitative method of Focus group discussions (FGD) were also used to complement the audience questionnaires to elicit more crucial information from the adult inhabitants of the selected local governments that may not be captured by the survey technique through mutual discussion of the researcher with the local government respondents. The

convenience sampling technique was adopted with a total of 8 FGD sessions conducted with one group consisting about 8-10 respondents each from the 4 local government areas selected for the study. The FGD sessions were conducted with the aid of discussion guide, tape and video recorders to store up responses apart from note taking.
