I plan to collect data from two groups (employees for independent variables) and their supervisors for the dependent variable. Is there any way to merge the data?
- Revenge cognition and perception of injustice-mediating variables
- Subordinates’ deviance-outcome variable
To overcome social desirability bias, I plan to collect data from two groups i.e;
-About IV from subordinates
- About the outcome variable (subordinates deviance) from their supervisors
After collecting data from this two groups, I plan to merge the data from the two groups (subordinates and their supervisors) probably unequal sample size. The data is to be collected using 5 point likert scale items. So, How it can be merged and analyzed?
