ying the average values the arithmetic mean and standard deviation were
used. The correlation is done with the help of the Pearson and Sperman corre-
lation coefficient test.
Results
The study included 150 respondents, aged 20 years and over, and the average
age was 39.97 years (SD = 12.84). The youngest patient was 20 years old while
the oldest participant was 60 years old. The share of the female population in
this, as well as in the majority of similar studies were dominant (72%), which is
expected, when it comes to the profession. There was a significant difference in
terms of age and sex (χ2 = 17,987; p <0.001). More than half of respondents are
(66%) while the remaining 34% are not married.
