Independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance, multiple linear regression and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to investigate the relationship between social deprivation and demographic variables. SPSS Statistics version 22was used for data analysis with a significance level of P>0.05.
Results: There was a significant relationship between social exclusion and employment status (P <0.001), economic status (P < 0.001), and marital status (P < 0.001).In addition, there was a significant correlation between social exclusion and age (P < 0.001).
