The calculated chi square values of selected demographic variables like
age, sex, occupation , number of children, number of school going children
,habit of junk food, type of diet ,medication ,out door play time, staple food,
monthly income ,habit of watching entertainment while eating, time spend
for children for activities were less than table values at the probability level
of 0.05 which shows there was no significant association between post test
and this demographic variables .

The computed chi square values for education and habit of exercise was
greater than table value which shows significant association.

Hence H2 is failed to accept for all demographic variables except

education and habit of exercise.
