Im new to this SPSS program, so please bear with me asking questions.
I have read a few articles regarding this topic, however, I need confirmation if Im doing the right thing or not.

I have this research on going, trying to correlate
Age (nominal) with surgical site infection: yes/no (categorical)
Time to Surgery (Nominal) with surgical site infection: yes/no (categorical)
Intra Op Blood Loss (Nominal) with surgical site infection: yes/no (categorical)
etc etc

using the Cramer's V, Lambda, and Kendall's tau-c confuses me in the interpretation part.


for this example, I know this values are not significant.


but for this computation, im not sure which is which.
