Detailed explanation-1: -What is correlational research? A correlational research design investigates relationships between two variables (or more) without the researcher controlling or manipulating any of them. It’s a non-experimental type of quantitative research.
Detailed explanation-2: -Correlational research involves measuring two variables and assessing the relationship between them, with no manipulation of an independent variable. Correlation does not imply causation. A statistical relationship between two variables, X and Y, does not necessarily mean that X causes Y.
Detailed explanation-3: -Correlational studies, better known as observational studies in epidemiology, are used to examine event exposure, disease prevalence and risk factors in a population (Elwood, 2007).
