Correlation example question 2. A researcher performed a Pearson correlation analysis on the variables anxiety, wellbeing and stress to identify if they were correlated. The researcher performed the analysis in SPSS and obtained the below table. Report the results of this analysis. Correlations | | | Anxiety | Wellbeing | Stress | | :--- | :--- | :---: | :---: | :---: | | **Anxiety** | Pearson Correlation | 1 | -.190 | .752** | | | Sig. (2-tailed) | | .060 | .000 | | | N | 99 | 99 | 99 | | **Wellbeing** | Pearson Correlation | -.190 | 1 | .037 | | | Sig. (2-tailed) | .060 | | .720 | | | N | 99 | 99 | 99 | | **Stress** | Pearson Correlation | .752** | .037 | 1 | | | Sig. (2-tailed) | .000 | .720 | | | | N | 99 | 99 | 99 | **. Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (2-tailed).
