CHAPTER ONE

• INTRODUCTION

This project work is about the statistical analysis of the consumption of cigarette and alcoholic drinks in tertiary institution (A case study of Federal Polytechnic Nekede). It consists of five chapters. Chapter one deals with the preliminary part, which includes needs for title study, aims and objectives, scope of the study, sources of data and problem encountered during data collection.

Chapter two deals with review of related literature that is previous researches relating to the study.  Chapter three deals with  research methodology which includes sources of data, sampling frame, method of data collection, reason for stratification, pilot survey, method of distributing questionnaires for main survey, the general format for  Chi-square using contingency table among others.

Chapter four deal with analysis involving frequency distribution bar and pie charts, estimation of the student average weekly expenditure on drinking and smoking, to determine whether the expenditure rate on drinking is due to age, to find out if the  student opinion on the effects of smoking is independent of drinking  habits and so on. Chapter five deals with summary, conclusion and recommendation.

• NEEDS FOR TITLE STUDY

1. To determine the extent of alcoholism and cigarette smoking among the students of Federal Polytechnic Nekede.
2. To determine the popularity of various brands of alcohol and cigarette Among the students consumer of the products.
3. To estimate students average weekly expenditure on drinking and Smoking.
