The amygdala is a brain structure involved in the processing and memory of emotional reactions. In a research project, 10 subjects were shown emotional video clips. They then had their brain scanned with positron emission tomography (PET) and their memory of the clips was assessed quantitatively. Here are the relative amygdala activity and the memory score for each subject: The relationship is (Linear or curved) and ( Moderate, weak, or strong)? The direction of the realtionship is (Negitive or positive)? The amygdala and memory 3/4: The correlation coefficient between relative activity and memory score is: (round your answer to 3 decimal places)

Introduction

Correlation is the measure of association between the two numerical variable. There are three types of association, they are positive association, negative association and no association. It takes the value between -1 to 1. If the value is 0, then there exist no association between the two numerical variable.
