Determine if the following statement is true or false. A correlation coefficient close to 1 is evidence of a cause-and-effect relationship between the two variables. The statement is true O A. False. Only a correlation coefficient close to 0 indicates a cause-and-effect relationship between the two variables O B. False. A correlation coefficient should not be interpreted as a cause-and-effect relationship O c. True, but only if all the conditions for correlation are met. False. A correla.on coefficient of 1...

The data shown in the following scatterplot show a very nice relationship between the two variables. However, the correlation here is 0.03, very close to zero. Explain why we can have a nice relationship between two quantitative variables and yet have a correlation of O 8 10 14 O There are no outliers but there are influential observations that cause the value of r to be near 0. 0 There are strong outliers that cause the value of to be...

1. A positive correlation (r = 0.52) is found between hours spent playing with other children at age two and sociability in kindergarten. Answer the following questions based on this result. a. What does a positive correlation mean in this specific scenario? b. If someone concludes that requiring children to play with others at age 2 will increase sociability, what TWO common errors of interpreting correlations are being made? c. Calculate the coefficient of determination for this scenario. d. If...
