The opposite directions of the arrows for education
and age in Fig. 2 indicated that these two factors had opposite influences
on the awareness of the dangers of pesticides. The location of gender
and occupation near the origin of the coordinates indicated that the effects
of these two factors on the understanding of the dangers of pesticides were
similar and could not vary the percentage of the explanation
of understanding on the canonical axis. Consequently, selected region,
education, and age were important factors in promoting the understanding
of the dangers of pesticides to the environment and human
health.
