Nominal values were assigned to the items according to scales. Questions on knowledge and awareness had an assigned score of 1-4 for ―Not sure‖, ‗Not Worried‖ ―Worried‖ ―Very Worried‖. To determine the partitioning value of items, the maximum of each of the nominal values was divided by N. Thus, the upper limit of knowledge/awareness was put at 2.50, while for practices was put at 1.50. For purposes of data interpretation, mean values of 2.50 and above were deemed to indicate high knowledge/awareness and below 2.50 were regarded as implying low. Mean values of 1.50 and above were considered for positive practice. A standard deviation greater than 1.00 was taken to indicate high variability among respondents.
