Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A correlation coefficient of -0.80 indicates a stronger negative correlation than a coefficient of 0.40. The closer the value of r is to -1 or 1, the stronger the correlation. A correlation coefficient of 0 indicates no correlation between the variables, while a coefficient of -0.30 or +0.38 indicates a weak correlation.
