They had standard to suppress results or to consider them in a calculation (criterion used to determine whether they obtain statistically significant\u00a0results). They outlined these analyses in tables (Irving, J. A., &amp; Berndt, J., 2017, p.8,9).<\/p>\n<p>Rate 3<\/p>\n<p><strong>Good Hypotheses testing procedures were used?

(e.g., correlations, regression analysis, ANOVA, t-test)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They formulated eight hypotheses, which they are follower perspectives on four Independent variables of SL, they analyzed for hypothesized positive relationships with four dependent variables. They perform the Bartlett test for proposed hypotheses to identify their significance level which is &lt;0.05, and They set the p-value &lt;0.01. They followed the five steps for hypothesis testing, no alpha level stated in the research; however, they used KMO and\u00a0Bartlett test (Irving, J. A., &amp; Berndt, J., 2017, p.8 ). They used Regression analysis to test the predictive impact of the independent variables on the dependent variables. So multiple regression standardized coefficient<em> beta<\/em> used on independent variables. Also, they used multiple linear regression hierarchical regression to test the hypotheses further. R squared measures for the strength of relationships between independent\u00a0variables and dependent variables. F values were used to find how the primary hypotheses relate to each other to predict a positive effect on the sub-hypotheses (Irving, J. A., &amp; Berndt, J., 2017, p.10-13).<\/p>\n<p>Rate 3<\/p>\n<p><strong>What were the results? (What was found?) Were the results comprehensive?

The eight hypotheses supported by moderate (0.40 to 0.88). All correlations were statistically significant at the level of &lt;0.001, which is exceeding the acceptable standard for the two-tailed significance of\u00a0&lt;0.01 (Irving, J.

Goal-orientation and leader purposefulness have more limited R square change results but are statistically significant at these lower levels (Irving, J.
