PEARSON PRODUCT MOMENT CORRELATION COEFFICIENT Definition It is the measure of the linear correlation between two variables X and Y It is the measure of the strength of a linear association between two variables and is denoted by r. It tells you how strong the linear correlation is for paired numeric data e.g. height and weight. The Pearson correlation coefficient‚ r‚ indicates how far away all these data points are to this line of best fit. Development It was the imagination and idea of Sir Francis

PEARSON’S PRODUCT-MOMENT CORRELATION COEFFICIENT ANSWERS TO EXERCISE 23 Question 1 The r value for the relationship between Hamstring strength index 60o and the Shuttle run test is -0.149. This r value shows a weak correlation between the two variables‚ as it is less than the 0.3 threshold for significance. Therefore‚ the r value is not significant. Question 2 Between r=1.00 and r=-1.00‚ there is no difference in terms of strength. Both values are on the extreme ends of the spectrum and signify

Assignment: Interpreting Correlational Findings Following are brief summaries of correlational findings‚ in which variables were found to be significantly associated with each other. Your task is to determine which of the three major causal models (i.e.‚ interpretations) could account for each finding. Indicate in the table below‚ by placing an X in the appropriate space‚ which of these three models could provide a possible explanation. Place an X in the space only if you judge the causal

Some people believe that heroes are shaped by the training they undergo while some people believe that heroes simply come about in a moment of crisis. I believe that heroes are a product of the moment by taking advantage of the moment‚ showing true character‚ and not being able to plan for chaos. Heroes that are a product of the moment know how to take advantage of that moment. For example‚ the text about Bob Bush talks about

Ultimately‚ throughout his exordium Pearson is excessively humble‚ ‘it is my honour to have been invited… Alas‚ I cannot promise my teacher’s rigour ‚’ this diminution of his prominent political position equalises Pearson with his audience.
