I wish to analyse the following :
Independent Variable (IV): User of online financial reports Perceived usefulness and Perceived Quality (Sub to Relevance, Reliability, Understandability, Comparability and Timeliness) (all using 5-point Likert scale.) towards Internet Financial Reporting in Malaysia.
Dependent Variable (DV): Intention to use Internet Financial Reporting information as a decision-making instrument (5-point Likert scale)
Questions:
Which statistical method should I use to analyse my data? Previously I was thinking to use multiple regression and correlation to analyse it, but I just found that I'm not fulfilling the assumptions, because the DV should be measured on a continuous scale.
What are the minimum numbers of observations I need? I read before that it is at least 10 for each IV. Does that mean I only need 60 observations?
I'm using SPSS to analyse the data.
