Interpretation
Descriptive and correlation analysis.Since value of 1 is for males and 2 for females so Gender mean of 1.3333 shows that around 67% of respondents are males and remaining 33% are females. Around 76% of respondents belong to age below 30. Respondents belong to different areas and approximately 98% of them are undergraduate or less qualified.
Just approximately under 2% are postgraduates; one reason could be because most of the people are aged under 30 (i.e. approx. 78%) and approximately 41% are below age 21 so they are less qualified as expected. A large percentage (approx. 60%) of the data comprise of respondents with mobility impairment while the other 40% are suffering from speech impairment, visual impairment and hearing impairment with almost equal percentage for all.
