Question

Hypothetically, correlational research shows that there is a positive correlation of +.67 between taking early morning classes and having a high GPA. Explain what this means. Does it prove causation?

I don’t entirely understand what its asking i need to write a short essay for it so if someone could explain that would be amazing.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A positive correlation (between 0 and +1.00) indicates a direct relationship, meaning that two things increase together or decrease together. A negative correlation (between 0 and −1.00) indicates an inverse relationship: As one thing increases, the other decreases.
