Correlation analysis

Описание к видео Correlation analysis

With the help of correlation analysis, the linear relationship between variables can be examined. The strength of the correlation is determined by the correlation coefficient, which varies from -1 to +1. This means that correlation analyses can be used to make a statement about the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables.

Interpret correlation
Positive correlation
A positive correlation exists when larger values of variable A are accompanied by larger values of variable B. Body size and shoe size, for example, correlate positively, resulting in a correlation coefficient that lies between 0 and 1, i.e. a positive value.

Negative correlation
A negative correlation exists when larger values of variable A are accompanied by smaller values of variable B. The product price and the sales volume usually have a negative correlation; the more expensive a product is, the lower the sales volume. In this case, the correlation coefficient lies between -1 and 0, i.e. it takes on a negative value.
