Table 4 demonstrates the results of the chi-square statistical test. The test statistic was
found to be 16.3723, while the critical value was 3.8415. Because the test statistic was greater
than the critical value, the test indicated that the researchers should reject the null hypothesis,and accept the hypothesis they had proposed at the beginning of the research study. According to Keyton (2011), the null hypothesis is the opposite of what the researchers intended for the outcome of the study. In the case of this research study, the null hypothesis would have been that Facebook’s intricate and constantly changing privacy policies have no effect on users’
awareness of their personal privacy settings; and thus no relationship exists. However, the data
