  correlation coefficient practice problems: Correlation and Regression Philip Bobko, 2001-04-10 . . . the writing makes this book interesting to all levels of students. Bobko tackles tough issues in an easy way but provides references for more complex and complete treatment of the subject. . . . there is a familiarity and love of the material that radiates through the words. --Malcolm James Ree, ORGANIZATIONAL RESEARCH METHODS, April 2002 This book provides one of the clearest treatments of correlations and regression of any statistics book I have seen. . . . Bobko has achieved his objective of making the topics of correlation and regression accessible to students. . . . For someone looking for a very clearly written treatment of applied correlation and regression, this book would be an excellent choice. --Paul E. Spector, University of South Florida As a quantitative methods instructor, I have reviewed and used many statistical textbooks. This textbook and approach is one of the very best when it comes to user-friendliness, approachability, clarity, and practical utility. --Steven G. Rogelberg, Bowling Green State University Building on the classical examples in the first edition, this updated edition provides students with an accessible textbook on statistical theories in correlation and regression. Taking an applied approach, the author uses concrete examples to help the student thoroughly understand how statistical techniques work and how to creatively apply them based on specific circumstances they face in the real world. The author uses a layered approach in each chapter, first offering the student an intuitive understanding of the problems or examples and progressing through to the underlying statistics. This layered approach and the applied examples provide students with the foundation and reasoning behind each technique, so they will be able to use their own judgement to effectively choose from the alternative data analytic options.
  correlation coefficient practice problems: Naked Statistics: Stripping the Dread from the Data Charles Wheelan, 2013-01-07 A New York Times bestseller Brilliant, funny…the best math teacher you never had. —San Francisco Chronicle Once considered tedious, the field of statistics is rapidly evolving into a discipline Hal Varian, chief economist at Google, has actually called sexy. From batting averages and political polls to game shows and medical research, the real-world application of statistics continues to grow by leaps and bounds. How can we catch schools that cheat on standardized tests? How does Netflix know which movies you’ll like? What is causing the rising incidence of autism? As best-selling author Charles Wheelan shows us in Naked Statistics, the right data and a few well-chosen statistical tools can help us answer these questions and more. For those who slept through Stats 101, this book is a lifesaver. Wheelan strips away the arcane and technical details and focuses on the underlying intuition that drives statistical analysis. He clarifies key concepts such as inference, correlation, and regression analysis, reveals how biased or careless parties can manipulate or misrepresent data, and shows us how brilliant and creative researchers are exploiting the valuable data from natural experiments to tackle thorny questions. And in Wheelan’s trademark style, there’s not a dull page in sight. You’ll encounter clever Schlitz Beer marketers leveraging basic probability, an International Sausage Festival illuminating the tenets of the central limit theorem, and a head-scratching choice from the famous game show Let’s Make a Deal—and you’ll come away with insights each time. With the wit, accessibility, and sheer fun that turned Naked Economics into a bestseller, Wheelan defies the odds yet again by bringing another essential, formerly unglamorous discipline to life.

  correlation coefficient practice problems: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Communication Research Methods Mike Allen, 2017-04-11 Communication research is evolving and changing in a world of online journals, open-access, and new ways of obtaining data and conducting experiments via the Internet. Although there are generic encyclopedias describing basic social science research methodologies in general, until now there has been no comprehensive A-to-Z reference work exploring methods specific to communication and media studies. Our entries, authored by key figures in the field, focus on special considerations when applied specifically to communication research, accompanied by engaging examples from the literature of communication, journalism, and media studies. Entries cover every step of the research process, from the creative development of research topics and questions to literature reviews, selection of best methods (whether quantitative, qualitative, or mixed) for analyzing research results and publishing research findings, whether in traditional media or via new media outlets. In addition to expected entries covering the basics of theories and methods traditionally used in communication research, other entries discuss important trends influencing the future of that research, including contemporary practical issues students will face in communication professions, the influences of globalization on research, use of new recording technologies in fieldwork, and the challenges and opportunities related to studying online multi-media environments. Email, texting, cellphone video, and blogging are shown not only as topics of research but also as means of collecting and analyzing data. Still other entries delve into considerations of accountability, copyright, confidentiality, data ownership and security, privacy, and other aspects of conducting an ethical research program. Features: 652 signed entries are contained in an authoritative work spanning four volumes available in choice of electronic or print formats. Although organized A-to-Z, front matter includes a Reader’s Guide grouping entries thematically to help students interested in a specific aspect of communication research to more easily locate directly related entries. Back matter includes a Chronology of the development of the field of communication research; a Resource Guide to classic books, journals, and associations; a Glossary introducing the terminology of the field; and a detailed Index. Entries conclude with References/Further Readings and Cross-References to related entries to guide students further in their research journeys. The Index, Reader’s Guide themes, and Cross-References combine to provide robust search-and-browse in the e-version.

covariance(协变)和 correlation(相关性)如何理解他们的区 …
Correlation 是在两组数据基础上的相对值,消除了数据组本身大小对相关性的影响(eliminate the effects of size),着重描述其相对的相关性,从而使不同规模的数据组之间具有可比性和对照性。 …

如何理解皮尔逊相关系数(Pearson Correlation Coefficient)?
Pearson相关性系数(Pearson Correlation)是衡量向量相似度的一种方法。输出范围为-1到+1, 0代表无相关性,负值为负相关,正值为正相关。 输出范围为-1到+1, 0代表无相关性,负值为 …

相干性(coherence )和相关性(correlation) 有什么区别和联系?
总的来说,cross-correlation 和coherence的本质都是某两个随机变量的correlation coefficient,只是cross-correlation 的输入是时域(time domain)变量;coherence的输入是频 …

如何通俗易懂地解释「协方差」与「相关系数」的概念? - 知乎
Dec 6, 2015 · 翻译一下:就是用x、y的协方差除以x的标准差和y的标准差。 所以,相关系数也可以看成协方差:一种剔除了两个变量量纲影响、标准化后的特殊协方差。

pearson 和spearman的区别是什么? - 知乎
其实除了这两个相关性系数,现在我们在转录组的文章里,也可以看到Lin's concordance correlation coefficient,感兴趣的同学自己可以去查一下. 好了,先讲到这里,后面我们也会陆 …

相关系数有什么意义,为什么说不能体现相关的程度? - 知乎
相关(Correlation,或称相关系数或关联系数),显示两个随机变量之间线性关系的强度和方向。在统计学中,相关的意义是用来衡量两个变量相对于其相互独立的距离。 所以当我们谈到相 …

量子化学中的电子交换能和相关能,能不能给一些通俗的类比,容 …
有交互重叠,有相关重叠,影响结果更显著的是前者。所以,不光依赖算符,基组的合理程度,也会影响exchange 和 correlation 。 用一句话来做一个总结,Exchange-Correlation描述的是电 …

spss相关性分析,结果怎么解释? - 知乎
相关性分析是衡量两个变量因素的相关密切程度。在spss中能够得到person correlation 这个皮尔逊相关系数r。r的取值有以下几种情况。 (1)r>0时表示两变量正相关,r (2)r的绝对值>=0.8 …
