The other name of rank correlation is:
Karl Pearson's correlation coefficient
Scatter diagram
Liner relation
Spearman's correlation coefficient
The value of correlation coefficient is always:
More than zero
Between +1 and -1
Less than +1
Less than -1
The symbolic word for correlation coefficient is:
r
Y
Z
When there is perfect positive correlation then the related line is:
Upward rising
Sloping downward right wards.
Parallel st.line to X axis
Parallel st.line to Y axis
When both variables change in the same direction, then correlation is:
Positive
Negative
Multiple
Constant
The range of simple correlation coefficient is:
Minus infinity to infinity
0 to infinity
Minus one to plus one
0 to hundred
If rxy = 0, then:
X increases with increase in Y
X increases with decrease in Y
X does not change with change in Y
Y does not change with change in X
The following scatter diagram shows that:
Correlation is perfect negative
Correlation is perfect positive
Correlation is low positive
Correlation is low negative
0 to one
If rxy is positive the relation between X and Y is of the type:
When Y increases X increases
When Y decreases X increases
When Y increases X does not change
When Y increases X decreases
