Question

A correlation coefficient of r = 0.16 would be interpreted as:
*
1 point
Strong negative correlation
Moderate positive correlation
Weak positive correlation
No correlation

Answer 1

A correlation coefficient of r = 0.16 would be interpreted as a **weak positive correlation**. Correlation coefficients range from -1 to 1, where values closer to 0 indicate weak correlations, and values further from 0 indicate stronger correlations. An r value of 0.16 suggests a slight positive relationship between the two variables.
