Figure 5. Gender distribution of 21 health problems by percentage.

Figure 5

A gender disparity was revealed: on average females have twice the disease burden (M = 2.545, SE = 0.2713, Var = 9.715, n = 132), of males (M = 1.351, SE = 0.2713, Var = 3.628, n = 114, t(221) = -3.67, p <0.01). (See Downs et al. 2009b for more detail).
