Feb 23, 2017 at 3:23 comment added Alan Mead @Carl - Yes, perhaps I should have been clearer. I'm aware of that, but this use by SPSS must mean something else (or, more likely, it's the probability of something other than the post hoc test). A picture may be worth 1000 words; I'll see if I can add a link to a PDF.
Feb 23, 2017 at 3:16 comment added Carl Sig. is interpretation of probability. Typically, but not necessarily, probabilities > 0.05 are not significant and probabilities <0.05 are significant for the test being performed. This may seem backwards but isn't because we usually assume the opposite of what we are trying to show. So if we assume $A=B$ and obtain $p<0.05$ we have shown it is unlikely that $A=B$ so that (usually 19 times out of 20) $A\neq B$. Question may be too basic to leave open here, don't know.
