You can find this value in the Correlations box. This value will tell you if there is a statistically significant
correlation between your two variables. In our example, our Sig. (2-tailed) value is 0.002.
If the Sig (2-Tailed) value is greater than 05…

You can conclude that there is no statistically significant correlation between your two variables. That
means, increases or decreases in one variable do not significantly relate to increases or decreases in your
second variable.
