Pearson’s r correlation coefficient was utilized in order to identify any possible
correlation between knowledge scores and oral health status scores. A One-Way ANOVA
was utilized to compare the knowledge variables based on age, educational attainment,
annual income, socioeconomic status, marital status, and dental insurance status. A oneway ANOVA, or single-factor analysis were used so the researcher could use a single
characteristic/factor for categorizing the populations.
