Question

Select the description below that identifies the following correlation: r = .28,p < .01.
A)the correlation is positive
B)the correlation is statistically significant
C)the coefficient of determination is .08
D)all of the above

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correlation is positive because the correlation coefficient (r) is positive. The correlation is statistically significant because the p-value is less than .01, indicating that there is less than a 1% chance that the observed correlation occurred by chance. The coefficient of determination cannot be determined from the information given, so it is not a valid choice. Therefore, the correct answer is D, all of the above.
