6 Factor Analysis Correlation Coefficient: Examples:
a measure of the association between two variables, in which 0 indicates no association, and +1 or –1 a strong association (positive or negative) Correlation Coefficient: Examples: correlation of +.68 between extraversion test score and number of times a person talks in class correlation of –.25 between anxiety and self-rated confidence glossary term Prepared to accompany Theories of Personality (6th ed.) by Susan C.

21 The Role of Theory in Cattell’s Empirical Approach
Many of Cattell’s concepts are similar to those of other theories (ego strength, ergic tension, and others). “I have always felt justifiably suspicious of theory built too much ahead of data.” - Cattell See more in the text, page 250.
