Prevalence of Anxiety in Different Age Groups
Yes, the pie chart is misleading. The values of the categories (Children: 22%, Adolescents: 33%, Adults: 28%, Elderly: 17%) add up to 100%, which implies that the percentages are mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive. In reality, the prevalence of anxiety in different age groups should be independent and not necessarily sum up to 100%. This misrepresentation can lead to incorrect interpretations about the distribution of anxiety across age groups.
