d) Nature of relationship between the two variables
There is a negative and moderate relationship between tenure and commitment. = −0.569
e) Test the hypothesis on the relationship at .05 level of significance.
v. State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses
: =0 : <0
vi. Calculate the test statistic.
− −0.569 − 0 −0.569
= = = 0.290 = −1.962
√ 1− ² √ 1 − (−0.569)²

viii. decision and conclusion
Since (|-1.962|) < (2.896)
Fail to reject There is no significant negative relationship between tenure and commitment at = 0.01 level of significance. Question 3

b. Nature of Relationship There is a positive and moderate relationship between attitude and participation.
c. 5 Steps Hypothesis Test Procedure
i. Hypothesis : =0 : ≠0 ii. Set the alpha ( ) The alpha ( ) value is 0.05 (95% level of confidence).
iii. Test Statistics
Based on SPSS Correlation metric table, = 0.582 and - = 0.000.
iv. Decision Since− (0.000) < (0.05) Reject
v. Conclusion There is significant relationship between attitude and participation at = 0.05 level of significance.
d. APA Reporting
Results of the Pearson correlation indicated that there was a positive and moderate relationship between attitude and participation and the relationship/correlation was significant, (303) = .582, p < .05.
