Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A multiple correlation R is significant when it is different from .00, indicating that there is a relationship between the variables being studied. A correlation of 1.0 indicates a perfect positive relationship, while a correlation of -1.0 indicates a perfect negative relationship. A correlation of .01 is a very weak correlation, and a correlation of 1.0 or -1.0 cannot be a multiple correlation as it can only exist between two variables, not multiple variables. Therefore, the best choice is B, different from .00.
