Abortion

Part 1: Univariate Analysis

            Table 1

            The research was conducted to establish whether a woman under any reason should be permitted to have an abortion. Based on the collected data frequency out of 392 respondents 294 stated that women should not be permitted to have an abortion for any notion. Those  that were in support of a woman obtaining permission to conduct an abortion with a reason were 98 with a valid percentage of  23.3 % while those that stated no were represented by 70%.

From this illustration it is clear that majority of the respondent were not in support of women having an abortion at any period. This means that those that support an abortion are represented by a minority issue. This therefore shows that the issue is debatable since those that were against it represent a valuable static despite the defeat.

            Table 2

The research was conducted to establish whether when a woman is health danger should be permitted to have an abortion. Out of the obtained three hundred and fifty seven responses 301 were in support of the notion while 56 were against.  Those that were in support were represented by a valid percentage of 84.3 while those against represented 15.7 of the total population.  This therefore means that under a health danger a woman should be permitted to have an abortion in order to save her life since she is entitled to life.  In addition health danger is a valid reason of performing an abortion as it requires immediate care.

            Table 3

            The research was performed to establish whether a woman should be permitted to have an abortion if the pregnancy that she holds was developed by rape.  Out of 385 respondents 231 supported that a woman should obtain an abortion in this scenario while 154 were against. Individuals that were in support of the notion represent 60 percent of the population while 40 percent is represented by those against.  This therefore means that an abortion based on pregnancy be developed through rape is supported by the public despite the fact that the difference between those against and those in support being minimal.

            Part 2: Bivariate Analysis

Table 1

            The data represents the individual’s view of sex before marriage in the context of age ranges.  Those between the age of 18 and 30 and started that it is not wrong at all were represented by 48 those between 31 and 43 were 57 and 52 were between 52 and 55. This therefore illustrates that the acceptance of sex before marriage varies with age. However the notion is highly accepted by all age brackets in the modern world.

			Age of Respondent				Total
			18-30	31-43	44-55	56+
Sex Before Marriage	Always Wrong	Count	24	29	31	38	122
		Expected Count	30.0	32.1	28.9	31.0	122.0
	Almost Always Wrong	Count	8	14	5	14	41
		Expected Count	10.1	10.8	9.7	10.4	41.0
	Sometimes Wrong	Count	32	20	20	25	97
		Expected Count	23.8	25.5	23.0	24.7	97.0
	Not Wrong at All	Count	48	57	52	39	196
		Expected Count	48.1	51.6	46.4	49.9	196.0
	Total	Count	112	120	108	116	456
		Expected Count	112.0	120.0	108.0	116.0	456.0

 

Table 2

            The data is a representation of individual’s opinion on whether abortion should be permitted to a woman for any rationale from women from all marital status. Married women represented the highest number in support of the notion with a count of 100 out of 161 widowed women 6, divorced 18, separated 4, and never married 33. This therefore shows that the married women highly support the notion followed by the never married.

			Marital Status					Total
			Married	Widowed	Divorced	Separated	Never Married
Abortion if Woman Wants it for Any Reason	Yes	Count	100	6	18	4	33	161
		Expected Count	100.1	7.6	16.0	4.9	32.4	161.0
	No	Count	163	14	24	9	52	262
		Expected Count	162.9	12.4	26.0	8.1	52.6	262.0
	Total	Count	263	20	42	13	85	423
		Expected Count	263.0	20.0	42.0	13.0	85.0	423.0

 

Table 3

            The data is a representation of political views of a woman having an abortion for any reason. Liberal views stood highest with a registration of 67, moderate 55 and conservative 38 for that that supported the study query.  Those against the liberal were 49, moderate 93 and conservative 115. This implies the views against the notion had won from all the three status views.

			Political Views			Total
			Liberal	Moderate	Conservative
Abortion if Woman Wants it for Any Reason	Yes	Count	67	55	38	160
		Expected Count	44.5	56.8	58.7	160.0
	No	Count	49	93	115	257
		Expected Count	71.5	91.2	94.3	257.0
	Total	Count	116	148	153	417
		Expected Count	116.0	148.0	153.0	417.0
