Would it be appropriate to utilize the chi-square test to determine if there is a significant correlation between these two factors?

After my previous message, I conducted a search for secondary information and discovered that community-dwelling adults typically enjoy longer lifespans compared to individuals residing in institutions. This finding is quite fascinating. Hence, can I conclude that older adults would benefit more from living in a community rather than in institutional settings?

Hi there. Given the current pandemic situation, community mental health services play a crucial role in supporting individuals with severe mental illness. However, in Hong Kong, social distancing measures have the potential to significantly weaken people’s social support networks. If we study the impact of social support on mental health, should social support be considered as an independent variable?

Hello there. While gathering data, our team discovered that residents in squatter areas generally have limited educational backgrounds. As a result, they faced challenges in independently completing the questionnaire. I was wondering if it would be possible for us to verbally read out the questions, record their responses, and assist in filling out the questionnaire on their behalf?
