As can be seen from the above scatterplots it appears that both depression and anxiety are<br />

positively correlated with inflexibility so that the higher the inflexibility the higher the<br />

depression and anxiety. Both Spearman correlations were significant, supporting the<br />

hypothesis that inflexibility is positively associated with both depression rs = 0.46, p =<br />

0.001 and anxiety, rs = 0.55, p = 0.001.<br />

Hypothesis III (b): There will be a negative association between depression and<br />
