Fully Aware of the Residents on Blood-Borne Diseases Transmission
More than half of the respondents are fully aware on the following:
Unprotected sexual intercourse increases the risk of HIV transmission (57.0%).
Having multiple sexual partners increases the risk of acquiring blood-borne diseases
(51.0%).
The use of condoms during sexual activity can significantly reduce transmission risks
(56.5%).
Proper sexual health education reduces the risk of transmitting blood-borne diseases
(51.8%).
Using unsterilized needles for tattoos or piercings can transmit blood-borne diseases
(52.0%).
HIV can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy (51%).
Level of Awareness on the Blood-borne Diseases Transmission of the Residents when taken as Whole
and classified according to Sex and Educational attainment
Table 2 shows the level of awareness on the blood-borne diseases transmission among the
residents when taken as whole and classified according to sex and educational attainment. The results
revealed that the residents of Poblacion, West, Oton, Iloilo are fully aware of blood-borne diseases
transmission with a mean of 4.29. Both male (M=4.32) and female (M=4.26) residents are also fully
aware of blood-borne diseases transmission. When classified as to educational attainment, only
elementary graduate (M=3.63) residents are aware and those high school (M=4.20), college

Inferential Analysis
Difference on Awareness on Blood-Borne Diseases Transmission among Residents when classified
according to Sex and Educational Attainment
T-test result revealed that there is no significant difference in the awareness of the residents on
blood-borne diseases transmission when classified according to sex. This is indicated by t=.577;
p=.565, which is greater than .050 alpha, thus, the null hypothesis is not rejected that there is no
significant difference in the awareness of the residents on blood-borne diseases transmission when
classified according to sex. The data are presented in Table 3.

Not Significant
To determine the difference in the awareness of the residents when classified according to
educational attainment, ANOVA is used. The data in Table 4 show that there is significant difference in
the awareness of the residents when classified as to educational attainment with F=4.412; p= .005,
which is less than .050 alpha. Hence, the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is
not rejected that there is significant difference in the awareness of the residents when classified
according to educational attainment.
