I have a question about reporting Pearson Correlations. I have a total scale (EBPAS) with four subscales. I would like to report how the total scale and each subscale correlate with the independent variables. Is the following sentence a correct interpretation of the results:

The 3-point scale measuring "interest in research" correlated significantly with the EBPAS total scale (r = 0.31, p = .001). In particular the subscales' openness (r= .203, p= .024) and divergence (r= -.232, p= .012) significantly correlated with the EBPAS, whereas the subscales attitude and appeal did not show significant correlation with interest.

The results indicate that out of the EBPAS openness and divergence towards EBP have the strongest explanatory power for interest in research.
