Logic of hypothesis testing with Correlations
Interpreting the Correlations and scatterplots
Simple and Multiple Regression
Using correlation for predictions
r versus r2
Regression uses the predictor variable (independent) to make predictions about the predicted variable (dependent) Coefficient of correlation is name for “r” Coefficient of determination is name for “r2” (remember it is always positive – no direction info) Standard error of the estimate is our measure of the variability of the dots around the regression line (average deviation of each data point from the regression line
– like standard deviation)
Coefficient of regression will “b” for each variable (like slope)

8. Lab sessions
No Labs this week

9. No class on Wednesday
Happy Holiday!

10. Scatterplot displays relationships between two continuous variables
Correlation: Measure of how two variables co-occur and
also can be used for prediction
Range between -1 and +1
The closer to zero the weaker the relationship
and the worse the prediction
Positive or negative

Positive correlation: as values on one variable go up, so do values for the other variable
Negative correlation: as values on one variable go up, the values for the other variable go down

20. Regression: Predicting level of passion for gaming
Describe relationship
Regression line (and equation)
r = .67
Correlation: This is a strong positive correlation. Passion tends to increase as number of hours increase
Predict using regression line
(and regression equation)
b = (slope)
Slope: for each additional hour spent studying, passion increase by points
Dependent
Variable
Intercept: suggests that we can assume each person starts with a baseline passion of 5.72
Independent
Variable
a = 5.72 (intercept)
