Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.
Regression Analysis
Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as p…

Answer to Problem 15PPS

There is positive correlation but no causation. Factors can be constructive personality traits, interest in doing things oneself, indulgence or inclination towards DIY projects etc.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Situation regarding video games and construction sets is to be discussed.

The given situation is not causation because the number of video games the students have is not related to any sense to the number of construction sets they have. Other factors contributing to this correlation can be constructive personality traits, interest in doing things oneself, indulgence or inclination towards DIY projects etc.

Thus, the situation is positive correlation but no causation.
