Abstract :
A set of random survey conducted in six residential areas near EM radiating sources four workshops, four offices. Every residential areas are subdivided into near & far region/zone. The correlation analysis was attempted to determine the degree of relationship between the physical & psychological sufferings of human beings & EM radiation. The regression equation for all the cases ware framed. Next the data available by random survey were classified on the basic of presence or absence of incident EM radiation. The nine squire tables were formed. Then from each of the ten pairs of the tables the association between sufferings of human beings & EM radiation was calculated taking them as attributes. After that the assumption/hypothesis that the two samples in each pair of cases were from same population was taken. Then the one tailed Z test with 10% level of significance was performed for each pair. At the end ¿2 tests was incorporated with 5% level of significance for all near, far, workshop and office. All the total steps ware compiled as a single soft ware, which may be used for analyzing the results of random epidemiological survey, related to EM hazards.
