  • Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Interpretation in SPSS
    1. Click on Analyze -> Correlate -> Bivariate.
    2. Move the two variables you want to test over to the Variables box on the right.
    3. Make sure Pearson is checked under Correlation Coefficients.
    4. Press OK.

  • Regression is a statistical technique to formulate the model and analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables. It aims to check the degree of relationship between two or more variables. This is done with the help of hypothesis testing.

  • To test the internal consistency, you can run the Cronbach's alpha test using the reliability command in SPSS, as follows: RELIABILITY /VARIABLES=q1 q2 q3 q4 q5. You can also use the drop-down menu in SPSS, as follows: From the top menu, click Analyze, then Scale, and then Reliability Analysis.
