RESEARCH ABSTRACT
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
Background- Adolescence is a critical stage in the life cycle, when the health of
females is affected due to growth spurt, beginning of menstruation, poor intake of iron
due to poor dietary habits and gender bias. Iron deficiency anemia affects over 60%
of the adolescent girls in India. Anemia in adolescent girls has far-reaching
implications. The anemic adolescent girls grow into adult women with compromised
growth, both physical and mental. These women have low pre-pregnancy weight and
are more likely to die during childbirth and deliver low birth weight babies.
Objectives –The main objective was to assess the existing level of knowledge regarding
anemia and its management among adolescent girls. Method- A quantitative
research approach and a non-experimental descriptive research design was used. The
sample size of 135 adolescent girls were selected by using non-probability
convenience sampling technique. Initially the investigator got permission from
concerned authority of Shia girls College Lucknow. The written consent was obtained
from sample. The tools used were, Performa of demographic variables, structured
knowledge questionnaire. Assessment of preexisting level of knowledge done by
administering structured knowledge questionnaire after that information booklet was
distributed. Result- The result of the study revealed that there was majority of the
48.9% sample subjects had inadequate level of knowledge, 32.6% had moderate level
of knowledge and 18.5% had adequate level of knowledge. Conclusion- The study
concluded that adolescent girls have inadequate knowledge regarding anemia and its
management among adolescent girls and there is a strong need to improve the
knowledge level of adolescent girls regarding anemia and its management.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
“Children are the wealth of tomorrow. Take care of them if you wish to have strong
India. Every day to meet various challenges”
-Jawaharlal Nehru
Health is a fundamental human right and health is central to the concept of quality
of life (Sundar Lal, 2007).1 It is a general Condition of a person in all aspects and also it
is a resource for everyday life. Health is a positive concept Emphasizing social and
personal resources as well as physical capacities. Adolescent is a period of second decade
of life and constitute over one fifth of India’s population. Adolescence begins when the
secondary sex characteristics appear and ends when somatic growth is completed and the
individual is psychologically mature, capable of becoming a contributing member of
society.2
According to WHO the adolescent period is from the age of 10 years to 20 years
i.e. the second decade of life. It can be distinguished as early adolescence, age 10- 13
years, middle adolescence, age 14- 16 years & late adolescence age 17 to 20 years. 2
1
Adolescents are in the age group of 12 to 18 years. Girls begin to menstruate at
this age. The girl should have weight approximately 42-64 kg and height approximately
155-169 cm. Total nutrient requirements are increased during adolescence age to support
a period of dramatic growth and development. Eating right food at right time will prevent
the nutritional deficiencies especially Iron deficiency disorders (Dorothy et al., 2007).4
Adolescence is a critical stage in the life cycle, when the health of females is
affected due to growth spurt, beginning of menstruation, poor intake of iron due to poor
dietary habits and gender bias. Iron deficiency anemia affects over 60% of the adolescent
girls in India. Anemia in adolescent girls has far-reaching implications. The anemic
adolescent girls grow into adult women with compromised growth, both physical and
mental. These women have low pre-pregnancy weight and are more likely to die during
childbirth and deliver low birth weight babies (UNICEF, 2012).4
Adolescent is a period of second decade of life and constitute over one fifth of
India’s population. Adolescence begins when the secondary sex characteristics appear
and ends when somatic growth is completed and the individual is psychologically mature,
capable of becoming a contributing member of society. Adolescents are in the age group
of 12 to 18 years. Girls begin to menstruate at this age.4
In world health report of World Health Organization (WHO) states that the
worldwide mortality rate of iron deficiency anemia is 60,404,000 in 2005 (WHO, 2005).4
High prevalence of iron deficiency anemia reflects their poor status of nutrition
because of their rapid growth combined with poor eating habits and
menstruation (Wong’s, 2009).4
Adolescence is the most vulnerable phase of life associated with high iron
requirements for growth and development accompanied by expansion of blood volume,
muscle mass, natural loss of menstrual blood in girls and increased demands with the
onset of pregnancy.4
There does seem to be a trend towards a decrease in the age at menarche over the
decades both in the rural and urban situations, not only in the affluent upper classes but
2
also among the poor classes of urban and rural communities and making adolescent girls
susceptible to anemia.3
Anemia is common in poor class since intake of poor mainly due to non-
availability of healthy foods. In higher classes, personal likes and dislikes and food
taboos lead to anemia.3
Anemia is the most common form of malnutrition mostly due to iron deficiency
amongst adolescent today. It is of public health significance in our country anemia
prevalence being > 30 percent.4
Anemia is very common among women in India due to invariable reasons which
include malnutrition, infection especially hookworm infestation, repeated pregnancies,
abortions, antepartum and post-partum hemorrhage discriminatory treatment of women
etc. about 85 percent of the women during pregnancy are known to be anemic. Anemia in
pregnancy results in premature labor, low birth weight babies, post-partum hemorrhage
and perinatal mortality.2
Adolescent girls with accelerated growth and rapid skeletal development may
suffer from iron deficiency due to inadequate food intake. Low iron store throughout
childhood may result in a delayed menarche and impaired immune response (Verma,
2004).5
In most populations anemia is primarily due to iron deficiency and is in fact the
late stage of a relatively long process of deterioration in iron stores. UNICEF/WHO
report indicates that there are approximately 2.5 cases of iron deficiency for each case of
anemia. Many more adolescents are in fact suffering from iron deficiency (ID) with its
adverse effects on health and physical stamina, than are frankly anemic. 6
Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in adolescence is a major public
health problem. Studies indicate that the incidence of anemia in adolescents tends to
increase with age and corresponds with the highest acceleration of growth during
adolescence. The highest prevalence is between the ages of 12-15 years when
requirements are at peak. Adolescents (age 10-19 years) are at high risk of iron
deficiency and anemia due to accelerated increase in requirements for iron, poor dietary
intake of iron, high rate of infection and worm infestation as well as the social norm of
early marriage and adolescent pregnancy.7
Iron deficiency anemia occurs because of lack of the mineral iron in the body.
Bone marrow in the center of the bone needs iron to make hemoglobin, the part of red
blood cell that transport oxygen to the body’s organs. Without adequate iron the body
cannot produce enough hemoglobin for red blood cells. The result in iron deficiency
anemia.5
This type of anemia can be caused by poor iron diet especially in infant and
children, teens, vegans, and vegetarians, menstruation, the metabolic demand of
pregnancy, breast feeding &frequent blood donation.5
4
The iron deficiency causes nutritional anemia in children. About 50 percent of
children have anemia. It is due to mal nutrition. It usually leads to various other problems
such as general weakness affecting work performance, reduced immunity and resistance
to infections resulting in increased morbidity and morbidity and mortality. It affects
physical and psychological behavior of the child. There is decrease in the concentration
of the hemoglobin and it is lower than the normal cut off point set up by WHO, which is
11 g/dl in children 6 month to 6 years.2
A level between 10 – 11 g/dl considered as the mild anemia and below 10 g/dl as
marked anemia. Anemia is aggravated by worm infestations and malarial parasites. It
may also be caused because of these infections. Another cause of anemia is folic acid
(folate) deficiency.7
Global data base by WHO (2000) on child growth and malnutrition and national
family health survey-2 (2000). In India, have suggested high prevalence of iron
5
deficiency anemia (56%) in school age children the average prevalence rates are: Asia
(58.4%), Africa and Asia (>40%), Indonesia (24-25 %).4
In India, the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls were 56% and this
amount to an average 64 million girls at any point in time. Studies conducted in different
regions of India shown that the prevalence of anemia was 52.5% in Madhya Pradesh,
37% in Gujarat, 41.1% in Karnataka, 85.4% in Maharashtra, 21.5% in Shimla, 56.3% in
Uttar Pradesh, 77.33% in Andhra Pradesh, 58.4% in Tamil Nadu and in Kerala (19.13%
among college students and 96.5% in tribal area). The major risk factors identified from
the above studies were socio-economic status, blood loss during menstruation, nutritional
status, hand hygiene and worm infestation.8
Nutritional needs of girls during adolescent period are generally ignored leading
to stunting and poor health. One of the major consequences of the physiological changes
and the nutritional neglect which happens during this period is anemia. In a tropical
country like India helminthic infestation is very common which can lead to chronic blood
loss which in turn results in anemia.8
Anemia causes adverse consequences as the disease progress. It not only affects
the growth of adolescent girls but also affect their attentiveness, memory and school
performance and retention in school attendance. It also causes delay in onset of
6
menarche, affects immune system leading to infections. If the anemic adolescent girl
becomes pregnant, it may increase fetal morbidity and mortality, increase the perinatal
risk, increase the incidence of Low Birth Weight (LBW), and overall increase in Infant
Mortality Rate (IMR) and Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR). As growing pregnant
adolescents complete with the growing fetus for nutrients anemia in pregnancy will be
worse than in older women.8
This type of anemia can be caused by poor iron diet especially in infant and
children, teens, vegans, and vegetarians, menstruation, the metabolic demand of
pregnancy, breast feeding &frequent blood donation.5
A level between 10 – 11 g/dl considered as the mild anemia and below 10 g/dl as
marked anemia. Anemia is aggravated by worm infestations and malarial parasites. It
may also be caused because of these infections. Another cause of anemia is folic acid
(folate) deficiency.7

NEED FOR THE STUDY
“It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver”
-Mahathma Gandhi
Adolescence is the time when many developments takes place both physically and
mentally. In this period more nutritious and healthy diet is needed. During adolescence
increased iron is needed for the body for the expansion of blood volume and increases
muscle mass. Adolescence gain 20% of adult weight and 30% adult height in the
adolescence period. Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common type of anaemia in all
age group and it is the most common type of anaemia in the world.9
-Brunet
Adolescents account for one fifth of the world’s population and have been on an
increasing trend. In India, they account for 22.8% of the population (as on 1st March
2000, according to the Planning Commission’s Population projections). This implies that
about 230 million Indians are adolescents in the age group of 10 to 19 years. The term
adolescent means ‘to emerge’ or ‘achieve identity’.6
9
As per WHO Iron deficiency is the most common and widespread nutritional
disorder in the world. The prevalence rate of iron deficiency anaemia among Children
between 5-15yrs is 5.9- 48.1%.8
Standard method was used among school girls age 9 – 14 year in India to assess
the physical work capacity and cognition of anaemic school girls. The result showed that
the adverse effect of anaemia was present even after controlling for under nutrient. The
data revealed anaemia adversely affect physical work capacity and cognition among
young adult girls. Recent reports reveal that anemia prevalence in adolescent girls is very
high ranging from 50 % to >90%. In 2006, the overall prevalence of anemia has been
reported to be extremely high at 90.1% in adolescent girls 11-18 years old from 16
districts in 4 regions of India. The study also confirms that 85% of pregnant women are
anemic. The earlier study from Western India reports that in the low-income group 80-
90% had hemoglobin less than 12%.9
Iron deficiency is the most common and widespread nutritional disorder in the
world and effects a large number of children and women in developing countries, it is the
only nutrient deficiency which is also 23 significantly prevalent in industrialized
countries. The numbers are staggering 2 billion people i.e. over 30% of the world’s
population are anemic, many due to iron deficiency, and in resource-poor areas, this is
frequently exacerbated by infectious diseases. Iron deficiency affects more people than
any other condition, constituting a public health condition of epidemic proportions. More
subtle in its manifestations than, for example, protein-energy malnutrition, iron
deficiency exacts its heaviest overall toll in terms of ill health and premature death. Iron
deficiency and anemia reduce the work capacity of individuals and entire populations,
bringing serious economic consequences and obstacles to national development. Overall,
10
it is the most vulnerable, the poorest and the least educated that are affected by iron
deficiency (WHO, 2012).5
So, from the above finding, it is seen that the adolescent girls have less knowledge
regarding management of anaemia. Adolescents are at high risk of iron deficiency and
anemia due to accelerated increase in requirements for iron, poor dietary intake of iron,
high rate of infection and worm infestation as well as the social norm of early marriage
and adolescent pregnancy. Hence I felt that there is a need to conduct a study which can
significantly increase the knowledge of adolescent girls about deficiency anaemia and its
management.

CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
A conceptual frame work is an analogous to the frame of a house, just as the foundation
supports a house. A theoretical frame work provides a rationale for prediction about a
relationship among variables of a research study.
Conceptual frame work facilitates communication and provides the systematic approach
to nursing research, education, administration and nursing practice.
Conceptualization refers to the process of referring general or abstract ideas, which are
formulated by generalizing from particular manifestations of certain behavior or
characteristics. These abstracts are referred as concepts.
The conceptual frame work in the present study is based on Pender’s health promotion
model 2008.
The conceptual frame work of the study is based and designed on the concept of health
promotion model prepared by Nora J Pender, which focuses on explaining health
promoting behavior in the presence of cues to action.
It defines health as a positive dynamic state not merely in the absence of disease. Health
promotion is directed at increasing a client’s level of well-being. The health promotion
model describes the multi-dimensional nature of persons as they interact with their
environment to pursue health. The model focuses on following three areas:
15
Individual characteristics and experience
Behavior specific cognitions and affect.
Behavioral outcomes.
The health promotion model notes that each person has unique personal characteristics
and experiences that affect subsequent action.
The set of variables for behavioral specific knowledge and affect have important
motivational significance.
Health promoting behavior is the desired behavioral outcome and is the end point in the
health promotion model. Health promoting behaviors should result in improved health
enhanced functional ability and better quality of life at all stages of development.
Health promoting behavior should result in improved health, enhanced functional ability
and better quality of life at all stages of development.
Personal factors
In this study, personal biological factors are demographic variables of adolescent girls
such as age, sex, educational qualification, religion, type of family, family income per
month, previous information regarding anemia and its management, menstrual cycle,
dietary pattern and family health status.
16
Perceived barrier to action
Perceived self-efficacy
Subjective positive or negative feeling that occur before, during and following
behavior based on the stimulus properties of the behavior itself.
Activity related affect influences perceived self- efficacy, which means the more positive
the subjective feeling, the greater feeling of efficacy. In turn, increased feeling of efficacy
can generate further positive affect.
In this study, activity related effect explain the ability to active participation from the
group, cooperation from the group and creative preparation of information booklet
regarding anemia and its management. Distributed by investigator after conducting the
pretest for increasing the knowledge level and active participation of group.
Interpersonal influences:
Situational influences:
Personal perception and cognition of any given situation or context that can
facilitate or impede behavior. Include perceptions of options available, demand,
characteristics and aesthetic features of the environment in which given health promoting
is proposed to take place. Situational influences may have direct or indirect influences on
health behavior.
BEHAVIOURAL OUTCOME
In this study, it describes about formulation of a realistic plan to get knowledge by the
booklet regarding the anemia and its management which provided by the investigator.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE RELATED TO ASSESS THE PREVALENCE OF
IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA.
Seema Rani et al. (2018), a descriptive Study was conducted to Assess the
Prevalence of Anemia and Identify Dietary Practices among Adolescent Girls in Selected
School of Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh. Quantitative approach with descriptive survey
design was used to achieve the objectives of the study. The sample consisted of 100
adolescent girls (11-17 years) from selected school of Moradabad. Convenient sampling
technique was used to select the sample. A structured questionnaire was developed to
identify dietary practices and to obtain demographic profile of adolescent girls and a
recording sheet was used to collect data regarding their haemoglobin level. The data was
collected and analyzed, interpreted using both descriptive and inferential statistics. The
study showed that 66% of the adolescents were anemic; out of which 31% were mild
anemic, 25% moderate and 10% were severely anemic. There was a significant
relationship between anemic statuses of the sample with their frequency of eating junk
food. A pamphlet on prevention and management of anemia among adolescent was
developed and disseminated to the adolescent girls. The point prevalence of anemia
among adolescent girls was found to be 66%. The high prevalence of anemia among
adolescents demands due emphasis on iron and folic acid supplementation, iron rich food
intake, health education regarding personal hygiene and periodical deworming to reduce
the burden of anemia among adolescent girls.16
Anil Kumar et al. (2018), a prospective study was conducted with 340 girls and
500 serving adults and prevalence of anemia was carried out with respect to different
prevailing factors. The prevalence of severe, moderate and mild anemia in girls was
0.5%, 10.6% and 27.9% respectively and in serving soldiers prevalence of anemia was
1.8%, 2.8% and 3.4 % respectively. In the present study, the prevalence of anemia was
found to be 39% in adolescent girls and 8% in serving soldiers. Strongest predictor to
anemia in adolescent girls was history of excessive menstrual bleeding and vegetarian
diet. Age group, age at menarche and BMI did not affect anemia prevalence.17
22
Amanda g. Cooke et. al. (2017), a retrospective cohort study was conducted in
children’s medical center in Dallas, Texas to assess the iron deficiency anemia in
adolescent who present with heavy menstrual bleeding. The researcher selected one
hundred seven patients with HMB and concomitant IDA who presented to the outpatient,
emergency department, and inpatient settings. The data depicts that the median
initial hemoglobin concentration for all patients (n = 107) was 7.4 g/dL, and most (74%,
n = 79) presented to the emergency department or via inpatient transfer. Symptomatic
IDA was treated with blood transfusion in 46 (43%, n = 46). Ferrous sulfate was the most
commonly prescribed oral iron therapy. Seven patients received intravenous iron therapy
either initially or after oral iron treatment failure. Combined oral contraceptives were
commonly prescribed for abnormal uterine bleeding, yet 10% of patients (n = 11)
received no hormonal therapy during their initial management. Evaluation for
underlying bleeding disorders was inconsistent.18
23
was done using percentage, standard error of proportion, Chi-square test and student’s t-
test. The prevalence of anemia was found to be 90%. A significant association of anemia
was found with socioeconomic status and literacy status of parents. Mean height and
weight of subjects with anemia was significantly less than subjects without anemia. A
high prevalence of anemia among adolescent females was found, among those whose
parents were less educated.20
Anurag Srivastava et al. (2016), a community based cross sectional study was
conducted among 604 unmarried adolescent girls in the age group of 13- 19 years in rural
areas of district amroha, Utter Pradesh using simple random sampling. A pre-tested and
post tested and predesigned schedule was used to collect the information. Chi square test
was applied to analyze data. Out of 604 subjects, 418(69.2%) subjects were anemic.
24
Majority 39.7 % have mild anemia while 28.3% have moderate anemia and 1.2% have
severe anemia. A high proportion 42.1% of the anemias were aged between 13-15 years
of significant association of anemia was found among belonging to the low socio-
economic status, increased family size and less parent’s education.22
Tanvi Twara, Sanskriti Upasna, Ritu Dubey et al. (2015), a study was
conducted to assess the nutritional status of adolescent girls and to find out the prevalence
of anemia in adolescent girls Bihar. The purpose of selection of this town for the field
study is the rapid change in its population, lifestyle and food pattern. A total number of
100 adolescent girls were selected in age groups of 13 to 18 years. The study population
comprised of 100 samples of adolescent girls from semi-urban areas. Result shows 66
percent prevalence rate of anemia among adolescent girls. Mean height and weight of
adolescent girls were compared with respective NCHS standards and only mean weight
shows a significant difference between them. BMI shows 56 percent girls were
underweight. Clinical signs and symptoms of anemia were seen in 45 percent adolescent
girls.27
Kumar B. Shill et. al. (2014), a cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate,
the prevalence of iron-deficiency anemia among the university students of Noakhali
26
region, Bangladesh. The study included 300 graduation-level students aged 17-25 years
(150 male and 150 female), with different socioeconomic backgrounds, from 7
departments. In this study, 55.3% students were anaemic, of whom 63.3% were female;
thus, anemia was found to be much more common among females than males. Females
are prone to anemia because of menstruation and due to social customs; they get a diet of
inferior quality compared to males. The researcher concluded that Iron-deficiency anemia
is predominant among a large number of people, especially rural women and children in
Bangladesh. In most of the cases, it occurs due to the lack of iron-rich food in daily diet
and, sometimes, excess menstrual blood loss for women. The present study indicates that,
besides the rural women, the majority of university students, especially female, are
affected by iron-deficiency anemia.28
27
supplementation of ‘Iron and Folic Acid’ in ‘Iron Deficiency Anaemia’ patients is as
good as daily supplementation with added benefits of less adverse reactions and better
compliance.29
Sachin Pandey (2013), across sectional study was conducted on 1st January,
2009 to 28th February, 2009 among 3rd year MBBS Students between the ages of 20 to
25 years studying at Chhattisgarh Institute of Medical Science (CIMS), Bilaspur. A total
of 96 students age ranging 20 to 25 years out of 100 students enrolled in the batch were
studied. A structured questionnaire, which include general information, sign and
symptoms regarding anemia, dietary habit, BMI, general physical examination, systemic
examination and a tallqvist strip for Hemoglobin estimation were carried out. Anemia
prevalence was 30.20% among medical students. Out of total 96 students 29 students
were found anemic out of which 11 (19%) male students were anemic. And 18 (47.4%)
female students were found anemic. The cutoff hemoglobin level below 12.0 gm% was
considered anemia.30
28
school students. The prevalence e of anemia was found to be 78.75% among school girls.
The results of the study show that the factors such as age, literacy status of mother, types
of family, community, weight, diet, frequency Review of Literature 57 of intake of green
leafy vegetables and fruits, menstrual discharge and deworming are the factors
contributing to the prevalence of anemia.31
32
out once a week followed by 23% subjects eat out twice a week and most of them
preferred to eat fast foods and carbonated beverages. Only 25% of the subjects were
having good knowledge about anemia. The results show that the nutrition education
intervention is required for the teenage girls to create awareness and to disseminate the
knowledge related to the prevention and control of anemia.38
Savita et al. (2013), a study was conducted to assess the impact of education
intervention on nutritional knowledge of iron deficiency anemia among 207 post-
adolescent girls of 18-25 years of age in Bangalore. The prevalence of anemia observed
that 53.14 % were found to be moderately anemic, 42.51 % were found to be mildly
anemic and 2.89 % were to be found severely anemic and only 1.44 % had normal
haemoglobin level. The prevalence of anemia in the study population was very high
i.e.98.66%.39

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
“Research methods are the tools and techniques for doing research. Research is a term
used liberally for any kind of investigation that is intended to uncover interesting or new
facts”.
- Walliman (2011)
RESEARCH APPROACH
Research approach refers to the researcher’s overall plan for obtaining answers to the
research questions or for testing the research hypothesis. It is the basic strategy that the
researcher adopts to develop information that is accurate and interpretable.
34
The Research approach is a plan and procedure that consists of the steps of broad
assumptions to detailed method of data collection, analysis and interpretation. It is
therefore based on the nature of the research problem being addressed.
Research approach tells the researcher from whom to collect the data and how to analyze
it. It also suggests possible conclusion to be drawn from the data and helps the researcher
in answering specific research question in most accurate and efficient way.
In view of the nature of the problem selected for the study and the objective to be
accomplished a quantitative research approach was considered to be the most
appropriate approach in order to assess the knowledge regarding anemia and its
management among adolescent girls in selected school of Lucknow with view to develop
an information booklet Lucknow U.P.
RESEARCH DESIGN

SECTION III
This section is related to testing of hypothesis i.e. association between the level of
knowledge scores with their selected demographic variables.
In order to determine the association between the levels of knowledge scores with their
selected demographic variables, the following hypothesis was formulated-
H1: There will be a significant association between level of knowledge scores with their
selected demographic variables.
Table 5.3.1
64
The data given in this table shows that Chi square test was used to find out significant
association between level of knowledge scores with their selected demographic variables.
The findings of chi square shows that there is no significant association between the level
of knowledge scores with demographic variables like: - Age in year Educational
Qualification, Religion of the Participant, Type of Family, Family Income per
Month, Previous Information Regarding Anemia and its Management, Menstrual
Cycle, Dietary Pattern, Family Health Status. Here the p- value in each case is greater
than 0.05 (level of significance).
Thus, it can be concluded that the research hypothesis is rejected, which means there is
no significant association between level of knowledge scores with their selected
demographic variables.

SECTION III
Findings related to testing of hypothesis i.e. there is significant association between the
level of knowledge scores with their selected demographic variables
In this study Chi square test was used to find out significant association between level of
knowledge scores with their selected demographic variables. The findings of chi square
shows that there is no significant association between the level of knowledge scores with
demographic variables like: - Age in year Educational Qualification, Religion of the
Participant, Type of Family, Family Income per Month, Previous Information
Regarding Anemia and its Management, Menstrual Cycle, Dietary Pattern, Family
Health Status. Here the p- value in each case is greater than 0.05 (level of significance).
