To determine

  1. Conversion of the data from this problem into a form suitable for the point-biserial correlation (use 1 for the money and 0 for the plain paper), and then compute the correlation.
  2. Square of the value of the point-biserial correlation to obtain r 2 .
  3. The t test in chapter 10 produced t=3.57 with df=16 . Use the equation on p. 518 to compute the value of r 2 directly from the t statistic and its df .Within rounding error, the value of r 2 from the equation should be equal to the value obtained from the point-biserial correlation.
