Description
Summary:Information on the prevalence of epilepsy in Malaysia is rather hard to obtain although these data are highly useful for understanding epileptic sufferers. The level of understanding on epilepsy among the general public as well as the PWE themselves is still low at present. The objective of this paper is to classify the intelligence of the People with Epilepsy (PWE) using the SPSS Two Step clustering procedures. The intelligence classification of PWE was made using the clustering analysis to arrive at three clusters based on their demographic and intelligence profiles to enhance their employability. The findings of this study would help create awareness among the public, especially employers, of the ability of PWE and their contribution to epilepsy organisations.
