Drawing from the data that was supplied on the civil status of 290 female respondents, it
can be noticed that marriage represents the most common marital status, accounting for 65% of
all respondents. On the other hand, 2% of the total are those who are separated or annulled,
representing the minority. About twenty-two percent of the women remain unmarried, and
eleven percent have become widows.
In summary, the examination of 290 females' civil status data varies depending on the
marital relationship they have within the sample. The significance of comprehending the various
life experiences and decisions that add to the varied fabric of civil statuses within the population
under study is highlighted by these facts.
