KR: Knowledgeable Rate;
a, indicates a statistically significance significant difference between most developed and developed regions;
b indicates a statistically significance significant difference between most developed and less developed regions;
c indicates a statistically significance significant difference between developed and less developed regions.
For ANOVA test, p<0.05 indicates a statistically significant difference between subgroups; for Chi-square test, p<0.0167 indicates a statistically significant difference between subgroups.
