Question

What do you mean by negative moderate relationship between the learner's performance and teacher's performance in layman's term?

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LEARNER'S PERFORMANCE AND TEACHER'S PERFORMANCE For Grade 9 students Factors Pearson R P-value Interpretation Grade 9 (experimental group) and teachers Grade 9 (control group) and teachers -0.571 0.139 Not significant -0.680 Not significant 0.063 There is a negative moderate relationship in the learner's performance (Grade 9- experimental group) and teacher's performance as R = -0.571, hence, it is not statistically significant as p = 0. 139, greater than 0.05 level of significance. There is a negative moderate relationship in the learner's performance (Grade 9- control group) and teacher's performance as R= -0.680, hence, it is not statistically significant as p = 0.063, greater than 0.05 level of significance. %3D

Answer 1

Negative relationship implies as one variable increases, the other one tends to decrease or the other way round.

Moderate relationship implies as one variable increases, the other will also increase but the rate of increase is moderate. Similarly if one variable decreases, the other one will also decrease but in a moderate rate.

Correlation co-efficient lies between -1 and +1. Higher absolute value implies stronger relationship. Here, the correlation between learner's performance and teacher's performance is -0.571, so it is in moderate range.
