The null hypothesis (Ho) states that there is no significant relationship between the two variables being correlated. If the Pearson r coefficient is significant (i.e. the p-value is less than the significance level), it indicates that the null hypothesis can be rejected, and that there is a significant correlation between the two variables. Therefore, to obtain significance for the Pearson r, Ho must be rejected.
