3. Coefficient of Correlation The sample coefficient of correlation, r, measures the strength of the linear relationship that exists within a sample of n bivariate data. Introduction to Business Statistics, 5e Kvanli/Guynes/Pavur (c)2000 South-Western College Publishing

4. Coefficient of Correlation Value Introduction to Business Statistics, 5e Kvanli/Guynes/Pavur (c)2000 South-Western College Publishing

5. Coefficient of Correlation Properties r ranges from -1.0 to 1.0. The larger |r| is, the stronger the linear relationship. r near zero indicates that there is no linear relationship. X and Y are uncorrelated. r = 1 or -1 implies that a perfect linear pattern exists between the two variables.

6. Coefficient of Correlation Properties The sign of r tells you whether the relationship between X and Y is a positive (direct) or a negative (inverse) relationship. The value of r tells you very little about the slope of the line. Except if the sign of r is positive the slope of the line is positive and if r is negative then the slope is negative.

8. Covariance The sample covariance between two variables, cov(X,Y) is a measure of the joint variation of the two variables X and Y and is defined to be: Introduction to Business Statistics, 5e Kvanli/Guynes/Pavur (c)2000 South-Western College Publishing

9. Least Squares Line The least squares line is the line through the data that minimizes the sum of the differences between the observations and the line.  d 2 = d 1 2 + d 2 2 + d 3 2 + … + d n 2 Introduction to Business Statistics, 5e Kvanli/Guynes/Pavur (c)2000 South-Western College Publishing

12. Assumptions for the Simple Regression Model The mean of each error component is zero. Each error component (random variable) follows an approximate normal distribution. The variance of the error component is the same for each value of X. The errors are independent of each other.
