3.5 Analysis Method

3.5.1 Descriptive Analysis

Descriptive statistical analysis is used to provide a description of the research variables statistically. Descriptive statistic in this study used average mean, median, maximum, minimum and standard deviation of each variable. The variables consist of the extent of greenhouse gas emissions disclosure based on ISO 14064-1, ISO 14001 certified Environmental Management System, the existence of environment function, the report of environment information in accordance with Global Reporting Initiative GRI version 3.1, rank of PROPER, firm size, companies’ leverage, companies’ profitability.

3.5.2 Multiple Regression Analysis

Hypothesis testing was conducted by multiple regression analysis using SPSS 2.0. Multiple regression analysis is a statistical technique that can be used to analyse the relationship between a single dependent variable and several independent variables. The objective of multiple regression analysis is to using the independent variables whose values are known to predict the single dependent value which was selected by researcher Hair et al, 2006. The regression equated was used in this study as the following form: EMD = + 1 EMS + ENV_FU + GRI + PROPER + SIZE + LEV + ROI + IND + e Explanation: EMD = The extent of greenhouse gas emissions disclosure based on ISO 14064-1 = Constants EMS = ISO 14001 certified Environmental Management System ENV_FU = The existence of environment function GRI = The Report of environment information in accordance with Global Reporting Initiative GRI version 3.1 PROPER = The Rank of PROPER SIZE = Firm Size LEV = Companies’ Leverage ROI = Companies’ Profitability IND = Type of Industry e = Standard error Regression analysis is used to measure the strength of correlation between two or more variables and it shows the direction of relation between dependent variable and independent variable. The dependent variable is assumed random or stochastic, which has probabilistic distribution. The independent variables are assumed fixed value in repetitive sampling Ghozali, 2011.
