Question

Look at the correlation between Risk-Taking (R) and Relationship Happiness (HAPPY). Use the standard alpha level of 5%. How would you describe the relationship?

1. The relationship is non-significant.

2. There is a significant negative relationship.

3. There is a significant positive relationship.

4. The correlation is zero.

Answer 1

Image of the correlation between Risk-Taking (R) and Relationship Happiness (HAPPY) is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

Option 1 - The relationship is non - significant

Explanation:

From the image attached, we can see that under the correlations table;

For correlation between relationship happiness and risk taking;

σ(sigma) = 0.053

Similarly, for correlation between risk taking and relationship happiness;

σ(sigma) = 0.053

.

Now,σ(sigma) = 0.053 is more than the standard alpha level of 5%(0.05). Thus, we fail to reject the null hypothesis since it is non - significant.
