A negative correlation is when you compare 2 sets of data on a line graph (e.g. scores in a French test and scores in an English test), the higher one thing is, the lower the other is (e.g. someone might score 98% on the French test but only 12% on the English test (or visa versa)). A positive correlation is the other way around. A weak correlation is when there is a lot of deviation from the line of best fit (there will always be one with correlations as a line of best fit shows correlations after all) whereas with a strong correlation, there is little deviation.

What is an example of weak positive correlation?
you
What negative correlation indicate?
the negative sign on correlation just means that the slope of the Least Squares Regression Line is negative.
What does a correlation factor of -0.95 mean?
This means that the correlation is negative but still significant.
What shows a correlation which may be positive or negative between two sets of data?
I believe you are asking how to identify a positive or negative correlation between two variables, for which you have data. I'll call these variables x and y. Of course, you can always calculate the correlation coefficient, but you can see the correlation from a graph. An x-y graph that shows a positive trend (slope positive) indicates a positive correlation. An x-y graph that shows a negative trend (slope negative) indicates a negative correlation.
What is the correlation on a graph?
a correlation on a graph is when the line of best fit is positive, negative or none.
-.147034 what type of correlation is this?
negative, weak
Interpret an r value of 0.11?
a strong negative correlation* * * * *No it is not. It is a very weak positive correlation.
When are is close to -1 does it indicate a weak negative correlation?
No, it indicates an extremely strong positive correlation.
What is the difference between positve and negative correlation?
Positive correlation has a positive slope and negative correlation has a negative slope.
What does -0.285 correlation means?
It means you have a slight negative correlation between the two variables of interest. As one increases the other decrease and vice versa, albeit in a weak fashion.
Can you provide an example of a weak positive correlation?
You can find examples by typing it in to Google. Weak positive correlation is a set of points on a graph that are loosely set around the line of best fit. The line will be positive rising up from left to right. A weak correlation can vary a lot as long as you can decipher which direction the data tends towards you have a correlation. If the points are close to the line of best fit you have a strong correlation and with a set of points perfectly lined up is perfect correlation. All three types can positive negative or perfect.
What does the sign of the correlation coefficient tell you about the association?
Positive correlation = positive association Negative correlation = negative association
Are negative correlation and reverse correlation same?
No.
What are three types of correlations?
positive correlation-negative correlation and no correlation

Is -20 a weak correlation?
yes
Is -.187 a positive or negative correlation?
It's a negative correlation because it is less than 0
