High anxiety and depression scores affect ‘Outlook on Life’ factor negatively. It is observed that, the more individuals in a family, the worse average points of ‘Outlook on Life’ factors. Moreover, reading books regularly is identified as a positive effect on ‘Problem Solving’ factors. In addition to that, it is seen that more depression scores negatively affect ‘Social Status’ factors.
