Abstract
The present study is designed with the aim to analyze the impact of religiosity on the association of socio-economic status with social exclusion of orphans in Pakhtun society. A total of 90 respondents were purposively surveyed through questionnaire. Chi square and Gamma tests were applied to measure association and direction of relationship between dependent and independent variables. For finding impact of religiosity, a multivariate analysis was carried out where religiosity is taken as controlled variable. At bivariate level of analysis, a highly significant (p=0.000) and negative association is found among sufficient number of clothes (γ =-0.911), availability of medical treatment (γ =-0.818), affordability to celebrate special occasions (γ =- 0.820), sufficient pocket money given by a caregiver (γ =- 0.842) and social exclusion. At multivariate level, the relationship is nonspurious. There is no considerable difference in attitude of families towards orphans with high religiosity and moderate religiosity. At union council level, data regarding orphans may be kept to be utilized for any future project inclined towards the wellbeing of orphans. In this article we have tried to explore the impact of religiosity on social exclusion on orphans in Pakhtoon society.
