Is -012 a negative correlation?

No. A correlation coefficient cannot be less than -1 (or greater than +1)


Can a correlation coefficient be greater than 1?

No.


What numbers will a correlation coefficient not ever be?

34.32245Correlation coefficient is less than -1 and greater than 1.Note: The Correlation coefficient is lies between -1 to 1 if it is 0 mean there is no correlation between them.


What implies a stronger linear relationship a correlation of plus 4 or a correlation of -6 and why?

Something is wrong. Correlations cannot be less than -1 or greater than 1.


What is a stronger correlation than -0.54?

The correlation coefficient ranges from 0 to ±1. The sign of the correlation coefficient shows the correlation as positive (as one increases so does the other) or negative (as one increases the other decreases). 0 represent no correlation and ±1 represents perfect correlation. The further from 0 towards ±1, the stronger the correlation, ie the greater the absolute value* of the correlation coefficient the stronger the correlation. To have a stronger correlation than -0.54 the absolute value must be greater than 0.54; ie all correlation coefficients that are less than -0.54 (eg -0.6, -0.9) and all those greater than +0.54 (eg 0.7, 0.95) are stronger correlations. Mathematically speaking, all those with a correlation coefficient r such that |r| > 0.54 *The absolute value of a number is the number ignoring its sign (ie how far it is away from 0 ignoring the direction along the number line), eg |56| = 56 |-45| = 45 |-56| = 56 Thus |-56| = |56| = 56.


If variables have a negative association then is this correlation less than negative 1 Or between negative 1 and 0 Or between 0 and 1 Or just greater than 1?

Between -1 and 0.


What is the correlation coefficient of -2?

A serious error. The maximum magnitude for a correlation coefficient is 1.The Correlation coefficient is lies between -1 to 1 if it is 0 mean there is no correlation between them. Here they are given less than -1 value so it is not a value of correlation coefficient.


When you have a scatter plot and you have to choose a correlation I know Positive Negative and no correlation are options Is moderate correlation an option?

Yes. * A positive correlation is when the dependant variable increases as the independent one does. * A negative correlation is when the dependant variable decreases as the independent one increases. * Perfect correlation is when all the points lie along a straight line; no correlation is when the points lie all over the place. In calculating the correlation coefficient it can have a value between -1 and 1, with 0 indication no correlation and values between 0 and ±1 showing a greater correlation until ±1 which is perfect correlation. Moderate correlation would be one of these intermediate values, eg ±0.5, which shows the points are moderately related.


Is 1.4 greater than 1?

1.4 is greater than 1.


Is 0.5 the strongest correlation coefficient?

No. The strongest correlation coefficient is +1 (positive correlation) and -1 (negative correlation).


Is 3.29 is less than 1 or greater than 1?

3.29 is greater than 1.


Is 19 over 17 greater than or less than 1?

It is greater than 1. 17/17 = 1. If you divide a number greater than 17 by 17 then the result must be greater than 1.
