Use Cases

• Analyze correlations between physician demographics and knowledge scores based on reported demographic variables.
• Model the relationship between knowledge, attitude, and practice scores using the structural equation modeling results described.

• Benchmark physician KAP scores against Bloom's criteria thresholds mentioned in the description.

Strengths

• Includes 390 complete survey responses with a reported effective completion rate of 96.30%.
• Provides specific mean scores and standard deviations for knowledge, attitude, and practice domains.
• Survey was conducted across 25 healthcare facilities, suggesting a multicenter perspective.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain statistical methods.
