Some Socio-Economic Correlates

By using item-total correlation, I have noted 8 variables correlated with total scores of socio economic status positively and in significant manner.

1. Sources of drinking water (16)
2. Family income (22)
3. Family size(12)
4. Frequency of food taking (11)
5. Family occupation (13)
6. Roof type (14)
7. No. of rooms(20)
8. Rubbish keeping (19)
9. Toilet types (18)
10. Wall types (15)

Here, I used 5 point Likert type rating scale. And the data (N=163) included Polba girls(n=63), Salkia boys(n=50) and girls(n=50).
