An experiment was conducted into various phobias, by the department of Psychology at Lowlands University. One hundred subjects were shown pictures of things that typically induce fear (spiders, violence, extreme heights, bloody wounds etc). They were then asked how frightened they were.   State whether or not the data is suitable for analysis using correlation and regression, and explain fully why you have reached that conclusion.       Observation Not frightened A little frightened Frightened Terrified 1 Spiders         2 Zombies         3 Blood         4 House fire         5 Clowns         6 Vampires         7 Explosions         8 Surgeries         9 Exam rooms         10 Job centres
