The Correlation Coefficient
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
The correlation coefficient, r, runs from −1.00 to +1.00, where the sign gives direction and the absolute value gives strength.
Show
An r of −0.85 between hours of screen time and hours of sleep is strong, and it is negative.
Watch for
A negative correlation is not a weak one. Sign and strength are two separate readings of the same number.
