Evidence¶

Malik 2018¶

Malik, S., Abd Manaf, U. K., Ahmad, N. A., & Ismail, M. (2018). Orientation and Mobility Training in Special Education Curriculum for Social Adjustment Problems of Visually Impaired Children in Pakistan. International Journal of Instruction, 11(2), 185-202. https://doi.org/10.12973/iji.2018.11213a

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Descriptive frequency tabulation of the convenience sample of 125 visually impaired children (91 male, 34 female, ages 5-15). The article reports "72.8 % of male and 27.2 female" and offers the attendance imbalance as an observation, not a tested result.

"Children consisting of 72.8 % of male and 27.2 female were part of the research study, also reflecting a notion that female students coming to institutes with visual impairment is far less than their male counterparts."

Malik 2018 (2)¶

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Frequency tabulation of institute type for the same sample: 68 public and 54 private students. The authors suggest this may indicate "the scarcity of private setups or the non -affordability of pare nts", an untested interpretation.

"54.4 % of the children were students at public sector, educational institutes, where about 43% were studying in private setups."
