Quantitative Analysis
Usefulness
The qualitative research by Johnson seeks to assess how teachers’ perceptions over Professional Learning Communities (PLC) interact with implementation of accountability reforms. The research is set on the background of increasing need for accountability in education management. It is therefore the premise of Johnson’s research that the teachers’ perceptions on PLC have a relevant relation with the instituted reforms (Johnson, 2011).
The research targets to give insights on the instituted reforms to the New Jersey education managers and to the overall national education taskforce on quality of teaching and learning. The research by Johnson’s 2011 will also facilitate in managing and implementing the reform efforts driven by call for accountability. The reform efforts come about owing to a change in guard over the previously independent school district currently being controlled at the federal and state level (Johnson, 2011)
Variables
Independent variable is the content of Professional Learning Community (PLC). The Dependent variables is the Perceptions of Educators that comprises of; Data driven decisions; Evaluation; Research-based practices; Learning outcome; Collaboration, quality of teaching, equity, and family involvement.
In the notation Y=f(X) +E, Y is the Perceptions of Educators - (the dependent variable) comprising of the above mentioned components (Johnson, 2011). X is the component of the Professional Learning Community - (Independent variable) that influences the components of Perceptions of Educators (Johnson, 2011).
Errors
The research by Johnson relies on self-reported responses from the educators. This presents a chance for individual subjective attributes to set in the research and influence the results. The absence of objectivity in the responses may lead to misleading information. The data information obtained from the survey may also have no true mean owing to the varied subjective attributes incorporated in the data (Dietz. & Kalof., 2009).

This report will hopefully pull together the research available with regard to this issue, and also identify what users are most at risk for virus attacks. The research currently available also confirms that modern viruses are becoming more insidious and complex, with the potential to incur more damage to computers and data than in the past. Studies suggest that newer versions of viruses may escape detection using standard anti-viral software.
However, this distinction was found to be less relevant in the present situation. There was no statistical software identified as being used in this study, nor was there any discussion of what consent procedures were used. The conclusion drawn from this study was that consumer behavior appears to be more rational as researchers are better able to predict this behavior in more situations. Perfect rationality results when either consumer behavior
