Data were collected by using personal interview questionnaire during the
period from September to November 2004. Frequencies, Percentages,
Range, Arithmetic Mean, Standard Deviation, Variance, Coefficient of
Variation, Skewness, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, t Test, Reliability and
Validity Coefficients were used to analyze data statistically.
The main findings of this study indicated that:
1- The findings revealed that the scale of basic communication skills
consists of 42 items having a high degree of reliability and validity.
