1 Correlation Assumptions: You can plot a scatter graph You know what positive, negative and no correlation look like on a scatter graph

2 Correlation describes the strength of the relationship between two variables. Paired data is often known as bivariate data. In S1 we will look at ways of measuring the degree of linear association First establish whether a linear correlation exists using a scatter diagram. x x x x x x x xx x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

25 Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (PMCC) If we sum the values… For this example, since most points are in 1 st & 3 rd quadrants, the total will be positive (hence positive correlation) A negative correlation would be overall negative No correlation would give a sum close to zero To eliminate these problems we use the following formula. This will always give a value between -1 and 1

26 NB. Don’t use PMCC if a different type of correlation exists, For example if points follow a clear curve

27 An easier version of the formula NB You are given all these formulas in the exam
