Note that given the sample size (N = 244,623), significance is not a good indicator of meaningfulness, and is thus not marked. Any correlation with an absolute value of more than approximately .0040 is significant at p < .05, and any with an absolute value of more than approximately .0052 is significant at p < .01. Also note that more than the usual number of significant digits are reported, reflecting the sample size and the number of correlations very close to zero.
