The second Hypothesis predicted that there would be a significant, negative<br />
correlation between social support (measured by the Social Support Behavior Scale, SSB)<br />

using the Pearson's product moment correlation coefficient. In this case no significant<br />
relationship was found (Table 5).<br />
