Statistical Analysis 2: Pearson Correlation Research question type: Relationship between 2 variables What kind of variables? Continuous (scale/interval/ratio) Common Applications: Exploring the relationship (linear) between 2 variables; eg‚ as variable A increases‚ does variable B increase or decrease? The relationship is measured by a quantity called correlation Example 1: A dietetics student wanted to look at the relationship between calcium intake and knowledge about calcium in sports science

Population of Great Britain from 1999-2009 appears to be a moderate positive correlation relationship. Both variables are increasing at a similar rate and following a similar pattern which would indicate this relationship. This relationship would tend to be a positive one as more people are available to the work. Question 3 The correlation relationship between the GDP and the Population represents a strong positive correlation at 0.897922049. This indicates that the two indicators have a close relationship

impact on the exchange rate of Indian economy. The data collected for the analysis is in the span of 10 years time interval. To find out the relation b/w the GDP‚ BOP & Inflation on the exchange rate of India the statistical measure Correlation & Multiple Correlation is used. To establish the linear relation b/w the exchange rate on the combined effect of BOP‚ GDP & Inflation Multiple regression has been used. The analysis states that there is significant relation b/w these factors. & there are linear

frequencies with x2 distribution. Correlation coefficient When we need to test the relationship between 2 quantitative variables‚ we use correlation coefficient and it measured by standardized covariance measure and investigates linear dependence. Before doing this‚ it is better to first make a scatterplot to check the outliers and linearity then get the idea about the nature and strength relationship. Next‚ we should calculate the r for correlation coefficient of variation‚ which measures the degree

effects. - Degree of correlation can be represented by the correlation coefficient (the letter r). This summarizes the difference between the two variables‚ and can range from -1.0 to +1.0 (from a negative to positive number). Instructions on calculating the correlation coefficient can be found in any preliminary statistics book. - The difference between positive‚ negative‚ and zero correlation is crucial; if the variables have no relationship with one another‚ then their correlation is zero; but if

The closer absolute value of this number is to 1‚ the more correlation exists between the factor you have chosen to examine and the heart rate data. Go to http://www.danielsoper.com/statcalc/calculator.aspx?id=44 and enter the correlation coefficient along with the sample size of individuals used in your calculation. This will give you a probability of obtaining these results by chance (p-value). P values
