Hello,

I have an assignment that I have been working on and I need some help with it. They are all multiple choice questions about correlations. I have to do well on this assignment to make sure I keep my A in the class but I have been struggling with this chapter. Any help would be appreciated and I would definitely be willing to tip (If the help is really good I am definitely not opposed to buying more gold to give to you) Feel free to post or PM me as well. Thanks!

Here is one of the problems:

1. Correlate the following variables (with a two-tailed test of significance): happy (1 = very unhappy, 5 = very happy), honest (1 = not honest, 5 = very honest), cheat (1 = would DEFINITELY NOT cheat, 5 = VERY LIKELY to cheat), ticket (# of traffic tickets received in the past 5 years), gpa (from 0 - 4.00), drink_typical (# of drinks you have on a typical day when you drink alcohol)
Of the variables you correlated above, select the variables that are significantly correlated with "happy" (you may select more than one variable). Note that significant = any p value less than .05. A p value of .000 in SPSS means it is smaller than .001.

(Points : 3)
Check all that apply
honest
ticket
cheat
drinks_typical
GPA

After running the numbers that come with the assignment this is the below results i got:

I can help. I need the original information provided, however, and not the results you have come up with.

I'm a senior with a finance option at Cal State.
