Which correlation coefficient (r) wuld best describe the data?
A. -0.56
B. 0.11
C. -0.89
D. 0.89
Solution :
From given scatter plot ,
Many points are lies in the near by straight line in the positive direction .
So correlation coefficient is positive .
correlation coefficient = r = 0.89
Option D) is correct .

2. According to Cohen's (1988) guidelines, an r of -0.56 would be considered a correlation 3. If two variables are correlated people who have low scores on one variable will tend to have low scores on the other variable. 4. Calculating a correlation coefficient is only appropriate when there is a relation between two variables. 5. A correlation value of would indicate that there was no association between the two variables. 6. regression enables one to predict an individual's score...
