I conducted a study using three quantitative variables and aim of the study was to investigate whether self-esteem and social identity predict life satisfaction. With the histograms, I know that the data for self-esteem and life satisfaction is significantly skewed, however I am unsure about the social identity data? I have calculated the skewness and kurtosis for the data, which is:

Skewness: -.091

Kurtosis: -.46

I was wondering if I could get a second opinion on the social identity histogram?

Also the Shapiro-wilks test shows that the p value for social identity is .723, which I know is non-significant.

What does a non-significant skew mean?

And if the social identity data is normally distributed, what does it mean of the data has a non-significant normal distribution?

I would be grateful for a reply. I have attached the Shapiro-wilks table, the descriptive statistics and the social identity histogram.

Thankyou
