To determine
a. For the 186 males in the study, however, 25 of the 27 correlations were positive. Is this significantly more than would be expected if positive and
b. For the 201 females in the study, 20 of the 27 correlations were positive. Is this significantly more than would be expected if positive and negative correlations were equally likely? Use a two-tailed test with
