Ideas in this flowchart
- Correlation describes a linear relationship between two variables.
- It indicates the strength and direction of that relationship.
- The correlation coefficient r ranges from -1 to 1.
- Values near +1 indicate a strong positive association.
- Values near -1 indicate a strong negative association.
- Values near zero indicate a weak or absent linear association.
- Correlation is useful for identifying relationships in data.
- Correlation does not adequately describe strongly nonlinear dependence.
