Question: A researcher was interested in finding the relationship between anxiety (X) and performance on a cognitive task (Y). The following summary results were obtained on a sample.
n = 8 ΣXY = 122
Mean of X = 5.75 Mean of Y = 3.75
ΣX 2 = 318 ΣY 2 = 168
- Compute the Pearson correlation coefficient r.
- Find the percentage and the amount of the variance in Y that is accounted for by the correlation between X and Y.
