Question 122

A social psychologist investigated the relationship between online social media exposure (measured in hours per day) and empathy scores across two distinct cohorts. Both cohorts had a sample size of $N = 18$ . The psychologist calculated Spearman's rank correlation coefficient ( $r_s$ ) for each cohort.

Table 1: Spearman's rank correlation coefficients ( $r_s$ ) for social media exposure and empathy scores

Cohort	Correlation coefficient ( $r_s$ )
Cohort 1	-0.42
Cohort 2	-0.58

Table 2: Extract of critical values for Spearman's rank correlation coefficient ( $r_s$ ) for $N = 18$ (two-tailed test)

Significance level (two-tailed $p$ )	0.10	0.05	0.02	0.01
Critical value	0.401	0.472	0.550	0.600

Using Table 1 and Table 2, state the best level of probability at which the results would be significant for Cohort 1 and for Cohort 2.
