Value

N of Valid Cases 30

a No statistics are computed because Commission on Audit is a constant.

ANALYSIS:
The SPSS could not compute statistically the chi-square value and significance level of the given data because the variable of corruption perception at the Commission on Audit was misread as a constant since all the respondents perceived the COA to be corrupt. Nonetheless, by looking at the Cross Tabulation count, of the 30 respondents who perceived COA to be corrupt, 28 (93.33%) had boundary exchange processes at the said office. Hence, corruption propensity and boundary exchange are directly related.
