Q.Assertion (A) : The absolute value of 'r' represents the degree of linear correlation between pairs of scores and yet the meaning is more complex Reason (R) : A correlation coefficients of 0.50 does not indicate 50% association nor does a correlation of 0.50 indicate twice the strength of association as a correlation of 0.25. Code :
Correct answer: Both (A) and (R) are correct
Explanation
The absolute value of 'r' represents the degree of linear correlation between pairs of scores and yet the meaning is more complex. A correlation coefficient of 0.50 indicate 50% association and a correlation of 0.50 indicate twice the strength of association as a correlation of 0.25.
