**. Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (2-tailed).
From the above table it can be seen that the significance level of the job satisfaction and the
mean wellbeing is 0.001 which is less than 0.05 then it means that the alternate hypothesis is
selected. This reflects that there is significant relation between the both the factors.

From the above table it is clear that the R is 0.278 which means that there is moderate relation.
On the other side the proportion of change because of the independent factor over the dependent
factor is 0.77. this means that if there is any change in the independent factor then there will be
only0.77 change in the dependent factor. Further the significance level is 0.62 which is great than
0.05. hence this reflects that null hypothesis is being accepted and there is not any significant
relation among the all the variables that gender, organisational identification, negative
experiences, positive experiences predicting evaluation of leadership
