Test the claim that the higher the educational degree that one has the happier the person is. Use GSS2012_revised.sav SPSS dataset. Conduct the appropriate test at ?=.05 in SPSS. Please articulate your findings.

I have so far identified the variables as:

IV is RS Highest [degree] (ordinal variable)

DV is general happiness [happy] (ordinal variable)

Identify the correct post hoc test to the Chi-square test, for example, Phi&Cramer's V, Kendall's tau c, Gamma, or whatever else may apply.

I have so far run the Chi-Square Crosstab test in SPSS but I need to know if this is correct and what the correct follow-up statistical test is.
