"The Village of Yakutia has about 50,000 people. Its harsh winters and remote location make heating a living space very expensive. The rising price of fossil fuels has been reflected in the heating expenses of Yakutia residents. In fact, many residents are unable to afford heat for the entire winter (5 months). A Northeastern Federal University study shows that 38% of village residents have gone without heat for at least 30 winter days in the last 24 months. Last year, 27 Yakutia deaths were attributed to unheated homes. Most died from

Statistical analysis techniques, such as paired t-tests and ANOVA, were employed toanalyze the data and identify any significant differences. Moreover, the relative percent gainedwas also calculated by comparing the difference in mean scores between consecutive years andexpressing it as a percentage of the initial mean score for each construct. This approach allowedfor a standardized comparison of improvement rates across different constructs and over time. This study adhered to ethical guidelines
