However, gender, length of residency and family size showed no significant relationship in the occurrence of DHF, having sig. (two-tailed) value of greater than the level of significance, a=0.05.

Aside from that, factors in terms of topography, breeding places, protective measures, health and nutrition, and garbage disposal showed a significant relationship in the occurrence of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever. They have sig. (two-tailed) value of 0.000 which were less than the level of significance, a=0.05. Also, garbage disposal showed significant relationship in the occurrence of DHF having sig.
