**Figure 7.** *Synthesis of hypothesis 4.*

Between H4 elements, there were both weak positive correlations (statistically significant at a 95% confidence level) and reasonably positive correlations (statistically significant at a 99% confidence level). Thus, the following examples of *weak positive correlations* between the elements are mentioned:


The following examples of *reasonable positive correlations* between the elements are mentioned:


**H5** - *Issues to consider before including Blockchain technologies in the education sector influence the challenges of adopting Blockchain technologies.*

In order to be able to analyze H5, the 9 subpoints from question 4 (issues to consider before including Blockchain technologies in the education sector) and the 9 subpoints from question 8 (challenges of adopting Blockchain technologies in education) will be taken into account. **Figure 8** shows the synthesis of hypothesis 5.

Between H5 elements, there were both weak positive correlations (statistically significant at a 95% confidence level) and reasonably positive correlations (statistically significant at a 99% confidence level). Thus, the following examples of *weak positive correlations* between the elements are mentioned:


The following examples of *reasonable positive correlations* between the elements are mentioned:
