Let Us Study
There are many instances in your life when you tried to determine if some
characteristics are related with each other. On a higher level, you also want
to measure the degree of their relationship or Association. You usually
associate height and weight, budget and expenses, mental ability and
academic performance, sibling order and attitude, civil status and managerial
skills and other aspects of life which may be related with each other.

Figure 1
In Figure 1, the points are plotted to show the relationship between the
values listed under column A which are plotted on the x-axis and the values
listed under column B which are plotted on the y-axis. Observe from this
data that for every increase of five units on the items in column A, there is
a corresponding increase of three units in the items listed on B. You will
also observe that the points fall along a straight line running from the lower
left to the upper right of the scatter diagram. This illustrates a perfect
positive relationship. When computed, the coefficient of correlation is equal
to 1.

increase of 5 units in A, there is a corresponding increase of 3 units on B,
the points also fall along a straight line but this time it runs from the upper
left-hand part to the lower right hand of the scatter diagram. This is an
example of a perfect negative relationship. when computed, the coefficient
of correlation is equal to -1.

From Module 3, you were exposed to creating your Null hypothesis (H0)
which states that there is no difference between the two values or variables
and the Alternative hypothesis (H1) which states that there is a difference
between two values or variables.
The statistical test uses the data obtained from a sample to decide about
whether the null hypothesis should be rejected. In a one-tailed test (left-tailed
or right-tailed test), when the test value falls in the critical region on one side
of the mean, the null hypothesis should be rejected.
To perform hypothesis testing, you compute the mean from the sample
and compare it with the mean from the population. Then, you decide
whether to reject or not reject the null hypothesis. If the difference is
significant, the null hypothesis is rejected. If the difference is not
significant, then the null hypothesis is not rejected. In the hypothesis-
testing, there are four possible results.
𝐻0 true 𝐻0 𝑓𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑒
Reject 𝐻0 Error Correct
Type I decision
Do not reject 𝐻0 Correct Error
decision Type II
The four possibilities are as follows:
1. It would be an incorrect decision and would result in a Type I error
when you reject the null hypothesis when it is true.
2. It would be a correct decision when you reject the null hypothesis
when it is false.
3. It would be a correct decision when you do not reject the null
hypothesis when it is true.
4. It would be an incorrect decision and would result in a Type II error
when you do not reject the null hypothesis when it is false.
Types of Correlation
The types of correlation are summarized below:
1. Simple Correlation
This is a relationship between two variables. The relationship
between an independent variable and a dependent variable is usually
measured.
A. Linear correlation
This means that a change in one variable is at the constant rate
with respect to the change in the second variable. The correlation
between the variables may either be showing direct or inverse
relationship.
1. Direct – for every increase in one variable, there is a
corresponding increase in the second variable.
2. Inverse – for every increase in one variable there is a
corresponding decrease in the second variable.
B. Curvilinear correlation
This means that a change in one variable is not at a fixed rate. It
may be increasing or decreasing with respect to the change in the
other variable.
2. Multiple Correlation
Multiple correlation involves more than two variables. The
relationship between a dependent variable and two or more
independent variables is usually measured.
A. Nonlinear correlation
The relationship of nonlinear correlation is like curvilinear
correlation. However, in this correlation more than two variables are
involved.
B. Joint correlation
This correlation between the dependent variable and two or more
variables is changed with the addition of another independent
variable.
3. Partial Correlation
This is a relative measure of relationship between the dependent
variable and an independent variable, without considering the effect of
the other independent variables under study.
Computation of Pearson r
Pearson r can be computed based on raw scores.

The absolute value for the correlation coefficient indicates the extent
of the relationship. An r of 0.7 and above indicates are very high
correlation; an r around 0.5 may be interpreted as substantial; and an
r of 0.3 and below indicates a low relationship between two variables
being measured.
The formula requires you to get the differences in the ranks of the
individuals from the two variables, then you square and add the
squared differences and substitute the resulting values in the above
formula.

Y should be distinguished from the observed data values which we did not
simply as Y. For a specific X, the resulting Y is a predicted value of the
dependent variable.

= 0.49492
The regression equation is a linear equation of the form. Thus, the
regression equation is 𝑌 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑋
2. We may now use this equation to predict Test 2 scores given Test 1
scores. For the second problem, when X = 45.
𝑌 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑋
= (3.19894) + (0.49492)(45)
= (3.19894) + 22.2714
= 25.47034

One-sample t-test
This test is used when we have a random sample and we want to test if it
is significantly different from a population mean or we compared a single
sample mean (𝑥) to a known or hypothesize population mean (𝜇). This test
can be used only if the background assumptions are satisfied such as simple
observations should be random and the population standard deviation is not
known.
Formula: where:
