Note. Bel. = believing, Bond. = bonding, Beh. = behaving, Blg. = belonging, GC = general castes, OBC = other backward castes, SC = scheduled castes, Income 1 = above 60 thousand, Income 2 = 30–60 thousand, Income 3 = below 30 thousand. For a more meaningful understanding (aligned with path analysis), in this analysis, original five categories were merged to form three categories of income. One thousand bootstrap cycles, for estimation of 95% confidence interval, were used to derive correlations. Brackets report 95% confidence interval.
