Introduction
This chapter presents, analyzes and interprets data gathered
from primary and secondary sources. The chapter is divided into sections. In
order to supplement the findings from the collected copies of the
questionnaire, qualitative and quantitative approaches were used. Twenty copies
of the questionnaire were distributed, and all of them were filled and
collected, indicating that none were missing. In order to make the work more
scientific with statistical evidences, the Statistical Package for Social
Sciences (SPSS) was used in data analysis. Findings were presented in frequency
order, followed by relationship; the researcher used correlation and regression
tests to analyze the relationship between independent and dependent
variables.

4.2. Profile of respondents
In social sciences research, respondents' personal
characteristics play a very important role in expressing and responding to the
problem. With this in mind, a set of personal characteristics, namely gender,
age, education background, and working experience, were the profile of
respondents considered during this research. This was done to provide a
foundation for drawing conclusions about the role of e-procurement in the
effectiveness of Rwandan Hospitals.
4.2.1 Gender of respondents
Gender is defined as the state of being male or female, which
is usually used to refer to social and cultural differences rather than
biological ones, but in this study, gender refers to both social and biological
aspects.
