Hi,

Use a table of Durbin-Watson critical values:

BT> Is there any way within SPSS to test a significance test of the
BT> Durbin-Watson statistic?  I know the stat has a range between 0 and 4
BT> and that values of 2 suggest there is no autocorrelation.  But, is it
BT> possible to obtain a test of whether a D-W is significantly different
BT> from 2?
HTH,
