the correlation coefficient range is -1 to +1
Yes.The Pearson correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to 1 inclusive.The sign of the coefficient tells you the kind of correlation:positive: as one variable increases the other also increases (like y = x)negative: as one variable increases the other decreases (like y = -x)0 means no correlation |r| = 1 means perfect correlation
The Correlation Coefficient computed from the sample data measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. The symbol for the sample correlation coefficient is r. The symbol for the population correlation is p (Greek letter rho).
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.
No, it's a small enough value that it doesn't suggest any correlation at all. There's no hard-and-fast rule for interpreting the correlation coefficient: a very strong correlation in one discipline might be considered weak in others, and the correlation coefficient might be misleading in some cases. But most of the time, you want r to be at least plus or minus 0.9 before even thinking about any relation between the data.
A correlation is the relationship between two or more variables. Correlations are described as either weak or strong, and positive or negative. There can be a perfect correlation between variables, or no correlation between variables. It is important to determine the correlation between variables in order to know if and how closely changes in one variable are reflected by changes in another variable. This is done by determining the coefficient of correlation (r), which describes the strength of the relationship between variables and the direction. -1 ≤ r ≤ +1 if r= +1 or -1, there is a perfect correlation if r= 0 there is no correlation between the variables. a value closer to + or - 1 demonstrates a strong correlation, while a value closer to 0 demonstrates a weak correlation. a + value demonstrates that when one variable increases the other variable increases, while a - value demonstrates that when one variable increases the other variable decreases. However, it is very important to understand that correlation is not the same as relationship. Consider the two variables, x and y such that y = x2 where x lies between -a and +a. There is a clear and well-defined relationship between x and y, but the correlation coefficient r is 0. This is true of any pair of variables whose graph is symmetric about one axis. Conversely, a high correlation coefficient does not mean a strong relationship - at least, not a strong causal relationship. There is pretty strong correlation between my age and [the log of] the number of television sets in the world. That is not because TV makes me grow old nor that my ageing produces TVs. The reason is that both variables are related to the passage of time.
Yes. The range of r is from -1 to 1. See related link.
No, r is a coefficient.
1.
no
It is r.
A correlation coefficient of 1 (r=1) is a perfect positive correlation.
lower case "r"
A correlation coefficient has a range of -1 to 1. Any number outside of this range has been incorrectly calculated. I note that is you meant to ask - Is r= -0.626 is a very strong correlation coefficient? then the answer No, this value is not a strong indicator that a linear relationship exists. Please see related link. The diagrams showing x-y graphs and the correlation coefficients is a good way to gain a "feel" of the coefficients and strength of relationships.
It is r.
"If coefficient of correlation, "r" between two variables is zero, does it mean that there is no relationship between the variables? Justify your answer".
The strength of the linear relationship between the two variables in the regression equation is the correlation coefficient, r, and is always a value between -1 and 1, inclusive. The regression coefficient is the slope of the line of the regression equation.
The answer is r.Actually 'r' is the usual symbol for the correlation coefficient statistic calculated for a sampleof paired values. The correlation coefficient for a population of pairs of random variables distributed according to a binomial normal distribution is usually denoted by the Greek letter 'rho'.
