Definition that contains correlation
- coordinate bring (components or parts) into proper or desirable coordination correlation
- align bring (components or parts) into proper or desirable coordination correlation
- correlation a statistic representing how closely two variables co-vary; it can vary from -1 (perfect negative correlation) through 0 (no correlation) to +1 (perfect positive correlation)
- ordinate bring (components or parts) into proper or desirable coordination correlation
- partial correlation a correlation between two variables when the effects of one or more related variables are removed
- product-moment correlation coefficient the most commonly used method of computing a correlation coefficient between variables that are linearly related
- factor analyze to perform a factor analysis of correlational data
- coefficient of correlation a statistic representing how closely two variables co-vary; it can vary from -1 (perfect negative correlation) through 0 (no correlation) to +1 (perfect positive correlation)
- rank-order correlation coefficient the most commonly used method of computing a correlation coefficient between the ranks of scores on two variables
- kendall test any of several nonparametric measures of correlation (used when the assumptions of standard correlational analysis are not met)
