A researcher found a significant correlation of .12 between gender (coded as 0 = ‘male’ and 1 = ‘female’) and number of friends at university. If the assigned values of gender were changed to 1 = ‘female’ and 2 = ‘male’, how would this affect the correlation? The strength of the relationship would become weaker The amount of variance explained by the relationship would increase It would become nonsignificant The sign would change to become negative
