Question

Assume that instead of conducting experiments, Latané and Darley had used a correlational method to study the relationship between the number of bystanders who witness an emergency and how quickly a victim receives help. Assume that the correlational data were compatible with results from experiments: the more bystanders, the more time it took bystanders to help. What type of correlation is this between time and number of bystanders?

Answer 1

a positive correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

The positive correlation defines the relationship between two different variables is steady that is they move in the same direction. A positive correlation closer to 1, is stronger. In other words, if one variable increases then the other variable increases too and vice-versa.

Example: The more a person exercises, the more calories he or she will burn.
