Statistical analysis
neuropathic pain
In the current research, frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation indicators were used to examine descriptive results. Also, to check the homogeneity of demographic and background variables, the Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, and independent t-test were used. In addition, an independent t-test was used to investigate the differences between groups of neuropathic pain variables and neuropathic pain severity in different stages of the research. Finally, in order to check the results of research hypotheses, univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and variance test with repeated measurements were used.
