Pearson's r measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two continuous variables. r ranges from −1 (perfect negative) to +1 (perfect positive); r=0 means no linear relationship.
Trinn-for-trinn guide
- 1r = Σ(xi−x̄)(yi−ȳ) / √[Σ(xi−x̄)² × Σ(yi−ȳ)²]
- 2Positive r: both variables increase together
- 3Negative r: one increases as the other decreases
- 4r² = proportion of variance in Y explained by X
