Correlation Coefficient

Correlation Coefficient 




A number that is a measure of the strength and direction of the correlation between two variables. Correlation coefficients are expressed using the variable r, where r is between 1 and –1, inclusive. The closer r is to 1 or –1, the less scattered the points are and the stronger the relationship. Only data points with a scatterplot which is a perfectly straight line can have r = –1 or r = 1. When r < 0 the data have a negative association, and when r > 0 the data have a positive association.
