Terms_Correlations Flashcards
a sample with a common denominator, or possessing of similar or identical traits
homogenous sample
deviations from the mean
mean-centered values
used to make centers of two (2) different variables consistent
mean-centered values
theoretical amount/degree/magnitude of relationship between x and y
crossproduct
the product of the errors of two different variables
crossproduct
shared variance
co-variance
average cross-product
co-variance
actual amount/magnitude/degree of relationship that we observe from the sample that is unstandardized or raw in nature
co-variance
summation of crossproducts divided by degrees of freedom
co-variance
the standard deviation of one variable multiplied by the standard deviation of another variable
expected amount of relationship between x and y
the empirical amount of relationship divided by the theoretical amount of relationship
correlation
provides us with a percentage, pattern, or ratio of relationship that was actually observed
