Question

According to many studies, there is a positive correlation between cross-group contact and good attitudes about people in the "other" group. This positive correlation means that as contact between groups increases, good attitudes about people in the other group should ______.

Answer 1

increase

Step-by-step explanation:

When a group of people has contact with persons who have good vibes, are positive speakers and form a friendly atmosphere, it's more probable that in a short-time will influence the behavior of the rest of the group. That will change the temper and feelings of the group, and increase the good actions.

Answer 2

This positive correlation means that as contact between groups increases, good attitudes about people in the other group should also increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the term positive correlation is used to describe the relationship between two variables in which, when one of the variable increases, generally the independent variable, the other variable, the dependent, will also increase.

In this case, cross-group contact acts as the independent variable, and studies find that when it increases, good attitudes about people (the dependent variable) also increase.
