They decided to test the following hypotheses: Hypothesis 1: There are differences between the numbers of high-, middle- and low-order shops and services in Central Ladprao Plaza and in La Villa. Hypothesis 2: The main reasons for people going to shop in Central Ladprao Plaza and La Villa vary in importance.
