In terms of awareness in dengue reported cases the average mean is 3.27 with the verbal interpretation of MA (moderately aware).

In terms of age on the awareness of dengue disease, the computed p-value is less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was rejected. Awareness on dengue prevention program the computed p-value 0.045 is less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis is rejected. Awareness on dengue reported cases the computed p-value is 0.000 is less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis is rejected.

In terms of sex on the awareness of dengue disease the computed p-value 0.564 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject. Awareness on dengue prevention program the computed p-value 0.758 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject. Awareness on dengue reported cases the computed p-value is 0.255 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject.

In terms of civil status on the awareness on dengue disease the computed p-value 0.512 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject. Awareness on dengue prevention program the computed p-value 0.002 less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis is rejected. Awareness on dengue reported cases the computed -value 0.025 less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was rejected.

In terms of barangay on the awareness of dengue disease the computed p-value 0.899 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject. Awareness on dengue prevention program the computed p-value 0.789 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject. Awareness on dengue reported cases the computed p-value is 0.953 is greater than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject.

In terms of educational attainment on the awareness on dengue disease the computed p-value 0.036 is less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was rejected. Awareness on dengue prevention program the computed p-value 0.095 less than 05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was failed to reject. Awareness on dengue reported cases the computed-value 0.000 less than .05 level of significance, the null hypothesis was rejected.
