Detailed explanation-1: -This would be an example of a positive correlation, because high values of one variable (e.g., time spent on the test) are associated with high values on the other variable (e.g., better performance on the test). Or it might be the other way around: longer time on the test is associated with poorer scores.
Detailed explanation-2: -Correlation Examples in Statistics. An example of a positive correlation includes calories burned by exercise, where with the increase in the exercise level, the calories burned will also increase.
Detailed explanation-3: -If there are multiple pizza trucks in the area and each one has a different jingle, we would memorize it all and relate the jingle to its pizza truck. This is what correlational research precisely is, establishing a relationship between two variables, “jingle” and “distance of the truck” in this particular example.
