In this investigation, the scientific method was used through a logical and systematic procedure to discover the truthfulness of the facts. The inductive and deductive methods were employed to study, to analyze and to extract the respective conclusions about the topic. The analytic – synthetic method served to analyze the empiric information after applying the instruments. The descriptive method was useful to elaborate the description of the problem, to draw up the objectives, to define the theoretical frame, to determine the hypotheses and to select the techniques which permitted the collection and interpretation of the information in a coherent way.
