One common example of a correlation method is Pearson's correlation coefficient, which measures the linear relationship between two continuous variables. For instance, researchers might use this method to analyze the correlation between hours studied and exam scores among students. A positive value close to +1 indicates a strong positive correlation, while a value close to -1 indicates a strong negative correlation. This method helps in understanding how changes in one variable may relate to changes in another.
