Comments on the statistics

x variables
b value and [comments]
p-value and [comments]
Gender (x1)
0.0842
[Gender has slightly positive correlation with the y variable.]
0.5552 (or 27.7620% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]
Age group (x2)
-0.0171
[Age group has very weak positive correlation with the y variable.]
0.0591 (or 2.9563% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]
Education background (x3)
-0.1401
[Education background has weak negative correlation with the y variable.]
0.22385 (or 11.1925% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]

0.0079
[Self-perceived social class has some negative correlation with the y variable.]
0.9547 (or 47.7361% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]
Familiarity with the HKATRP (x5)
-0.1302
[Familiarity with the HKATRP has weak negative correlation with the y variable.]
0.2464 (or 12.3221% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]
Confidence in project management competence of AAHK (x6)
0.5169
[Confidence in project management competence of AAHK has some positive correlation with the y variable.]
0.0002 (or 0.012% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is rejected.]
Confidence that a satisfactory airspace arrangement will be worked out (x7)
0.2081
 [Confidence that a satisfactory airspace arrangement will be worked out has some positive correlation with the y variable.]
0.1382 (or 6.9107% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]
Perceived sufficiency of project information released (x8)
0.0346
[Perceived sufficiency of project information released has some positive correlation with the y variable.]
0.8438 (or 42.1908% on each side)
[With the critical value of 5% (or 2.5% on each side), the null hypothesis that the b value be zero is not rejected.]
