Write summary Assumptions A key assumption is that the sample size will be sufficiently high to enable reliable statistical inferences, which is a crucial premise. Results from a smaller sample may not be reliable or statistically significant. All teachers are expected to present the DET Needs instrument consistently, which guarantees that each participant receives the same set of instructions and questions and minimizes answer variability. The teachers' honesty and accuracy in answering the survey questions are another presumption. Their self-reported answers are thought to be accurate in reflecting on how they view the demands for DET education. Random Sampling: It is believed that the sample's teachers will be representative of the district's entire teaching workforce, enabling reliable conclusions. Limitations Self-Reported Information: Because the study uses survey data, answers may contain biases, including social desirability bias, in which individuals may exaggerate or underestimate their needs in response to perceived expectations. Correlation versus Causation: Because this study is correlational, it can only identify relationships between variables; it cannot prove causation. One variable may not necessarily cause changes in another, even if a substantial link is discovered. The findings might not be applicable outside of the suburban school district.
