A researcher is examining the relationship between stress levels and performance on a test of cognitive performance. She hypothesizes that stress levels lead to an increase in performance to a point, and then increased stress decreases performance. She tests 10 participants who have the following levels of stress: 10.94 12.76 7.62 8.17 7.83 12.22 9.23 11.17 11.88 8.18 When she tests their levels of mental performance, she finds the following cognitive performance scores (listed in the same participant order as above): 5.24 4.64 4.68 5.04 4.17 6.20 4.54 6.55 5.79 3.17 Perform a linear regression to examine the relationship between these variables. What do the results mean?
