Consider the following passage: I ran a regression, with many variables to predict the result of another variable which was the murder rate. One can see that lots of things, can cause the murder rate to increase or decrease.

The unemployment rate is, "a measure of the prevalence of unemployment and it is calculated as a percentage by dividing the number of unemployed individuals by all individuals currently in the labor force." (Wikipedia) International migration per 1,000 is, the number of people who come into a state from other countries per 1,000 people who live in the state. After I run the regression I will look at the t scores and p values and I should hopefully conclude that international migration does not cause crime.
