Question

Does association between variables mean that there is a cause-and-effect

relationship? Why or why not? Give an example.

Answer 1

Yes

Explanation:

Two variables may be associated without a causal relationship. For example, there is a statistical association between the number of people who drowned by falling into a pool and the number of films Nicolas Cage appeared in in a given year. However, there is obviously no causal relationship.
