To determine if there is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis of no relationship between X and Y using Spearman's rank correlation, we need to consider the sample size and the significance level (α). With a sample size of 14 and a Spearman's rank correlation of 0.52, we can reject the null hypothesis at α = 0.10 because the correlation is significant enough at this level, but it may not be strong enough to reject at lower α levels such as 0.05, 0.025, or 0.01 without further statistical tests or critical values.
